Greet the day from the stern of a canoe, casting quietly
into still, fog-shrouded waters, or wade into a bubbling,
cold mountain stream in search of deep, trout-filled pools.
Anglers will find numerous worthwhile lakes, ponds,
streams, and rivers in The Maine Highlands. Some are
accessible by car and others require a bit of a trek or can
only be reached by boat. Spin casting or fly casting, shallow
water or deep, stocked ponds or wild streams, The Maine
Highlands offers a fishing experience for every angler.
