*** Ice Fishing Mission Alert ***

We are looking for Veterans and/or First Responders who would like to try ice fishing and learn the basics. We currently have one Veteran who has requested to go and specifically wants to learn how to fish for edible fish.

This mission will be different from our pike fishing missions — it will be informative, hands-on, and focused on fundamentals.
Breakfast and lunch will be provided, and we will depart in the afternoon.

The date is to be determined. Once we have a few more interested participants, we will set a date.

Please PM us if you are interested, with the days that work best for you and town you live in or near.

Effective January 1, 2026, children 12 years of age or younger, including a boat operator who is 12 years of age or younger, must wear a United States Coast Guard approved personal flotation device (PFD) while on any watercraft that is underway and being used for recreational purposes. Exceptions to this requirement include if the child is below the decks, in an enclosed cabin or if the watercraft has a USCG certificate of inspection.

This change, initiated and passed by the Maine State Legislature, increased the required age from 10 years of age or younger to 12 years of age or younger to improve youth safety on Maine's waters. The updated age requirement now aligns with federal law.

Helpful tips!! 🐟 🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟

When you picture a landlocked salmon and then a brown trout, I’m sure the two species are clearly distinguishable. In certain Maine water bodies both species are present and on occasion the two species can be tough to quickly identify. Which, to be fair, is not that much of a surprise. Landlocked ...
