  I didn't expect that much fun to fish with Steve

  3 Hour Trip – Family Fun on July 16, 2026 • 2 adults

  I am so glad I chose Prime Tide Striper Guide over other providers with high reviews. Steve started his new business so the review wasn't that high but that only tells me he will do his best to his client. Most providers are in Saco where I have to drive 45 min from Freeport (where I stay). Prime Tide is at Falmouth which is only 15 min drive from Freeport. That makes a big difference. The bottom line, Steve is a great guy. I am so happy to have him. My son said this fishing tour is the best among our 4-day trip in the Freeport-Portland area. I will go find him again next time.

  Great Captain! Great Fishing!

  5 Hour Trip on September 8, 2026 • 3 adults

  Stephen is an excellent captain who is extremely knowledgable and knows where to put you to give you the best chance at success. We caught many fish on our trip and even had luck catching a big Striper. Highly recommend Prime Tide!

  Wifes Personal Best

  3 Hour Trip – Family Fun on August 20, 2026 • 2 adults

  Caption Steve took us out and my Wife caught her personal best 34” Striper even though conditions were not set up for it. Steve and has vast knowledge of the fisheries was able to dial in the area and find the feeding fish. i would and will highly recommend booking him if you are in the area and looking for an experienced Captain to get you tight lines.

  Great day on the water

  3 Hour Trip – Family Fun - 1:00 PM on September 8, 2026 • 2 adults

  Steve was a great captain. Easy to talk to and felt like a long-time friend taking us on a trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better day out on the water! Would book with Steve again and again.

  It was a pleasure to share a celebratory afternoon on the water with you. I enjoyed our time together and the time flew by. You both executed our chances perfectly and I thank you for choosing Prime Tide. Enjoy the rest of your Maine vacation and I hope to fish together again!

  Great Family Trip!

  3 Hour Trip – Family Fun on July 18, 2026 • 4 adults • 1 child

  Captain Steve was super knowledgeable and worked well with our two daughters, aged 19 and 7. They each caught a lot of mackerel before we went searching for striped bass. We also saw seals, porpoises and plenty of other wildlife that Captain Steve taught us about. We all had a great time and would highly recommend this experience to anyone.
