Probably better off going for stripers overall, but you can get mackerel off the pier downtown, depending if they're there. A lot of people fish the mouth of the Presumpscot River. If you're willing to drive 20 minutes, there's a whole world of great spots for striped bass that time of year.

Yeah, my grandfather fished for mackerel for years off the end of the State Pier, usually there at dawn. He ate them too, even though it was largely the pre-treatment plant era.
