Last fall, Maine Outdoors made the decision to discontinue our endorsement partnership with Orvis. During our collaboration, I had the privilege of using and recommending the latest Orvis fly rods. Although I still possess these rods, I will be in the process of transitioning to different equipment to better serve your needs.
I often receive questions about my gear recommendations. After a quest to find a retail partner that aligns with who Maine Outdoors is, I am pleased to announce that I've partnered with Selene’s Fly Shop in Gardiner. Selene, the artisan behind the custom flies many of you admired last summer, who is as dedicated to quality and customer satisfaction as we are at Maine Outdoors.
We're thrilled to introduce new trips launching from Gardiner Landing on the Kennebec River this spring. It was important for me to source fly rods and outfits that I can wholeheartedly recommend from a retailer that not only provides exceptional gear but also offers the personalized attention that comes with a small, local shop.
While Gardiner is a 45-minute drive from Union, the superior quality and service you'll find there justify the trip. Moreover, with the option of shipping, the distance is not a barrier.
To start, I'm excited to recommend two striper outfits that both Selene and I endorse:
Maine Guide Striper Outfit - Wicked Good
Maine Guide Striper Outfit - Really Good
Stay tuned for our freshwater outfit selections, which we'll be introducing soon.
