Penobscot Valley Fishing Report: July 24, 2007

We have had reports of excellent fishing from Bangor to Medway. Easy access, great scenery, and a multitude of wildlife sightings all add up to a trip that the whole family will enjoy. The angler can fish from shore, take a canoe, or hire a Maine guide for a trip to be remembered. We have had reports of excellent catches. The bass are mostly in the 1 to 2 lb category but much larger ones are also being caught.

Many of our smallmouth bass lakes are also producing great fishing, South Branch Lake in Seboeis Plt., Baskahegan Lake in Brookton, East Grand Lake in Danforth, Pleasant Lake in Island Fall, Mattanawcook Pond in Lincoln, and Eskutassis Pond in Lowell. If you enjoy fishing for bass, give these waters a try.

Schoodic Lake is producing some good catches of lake trout along with the occasional nice salmon. West Lake has produced some good catches of salmon and brook trout.

Just a reminder, summer is close to being half over, so get out there and enjoy!
