What would you recommend to anglers fishing in Mount Desert, Maine for the first time?

If you have not been on a boat in a while, dress in layers, it can get chilly on the water, and take motion sickness meds before you hit the water if you are prone to sea sickness. Then have a great time!

Only fish of substantial size that were biting was cod, which was out of season. I was planning catch and release anyway, but I would’ve been disappointed if I was planning a meal. Fishing was a little slower than ideal, and for that I blame the fish!

Be prepared for the real deal of sea fishing in May!!! Captain Luke is a real lifelong fisherman & will prepare you for the trip. He was very quick to answer questions, in the days-weeks before the journey.

Cod season is short in the spring and fall. The customizeable trip is probably the best so you can get a variety.

Enjoy whatever the day may bring as nothing is guaranteed and it is just a privilege to experience a day on the Atlantic Ocean with a great crew!

If it’s your first time getting a charter go with Captain Luke and his crew!! You’ll be glad you did!

If you’re looking for a great fishing trip look no further than the opportunity! Caption Higgins and his crew are where it’s at. Do yourself the favor and book the trip
