If you are in Union tomorrow June 4th, 2011, my neighbors run a kids fishing event. We will be at Ayer Park (where my exploring nature trips start) from 10 AM to 2 PM. All of the worms and equipment that a kid could need to catch a fish along with plenty of volunteer instructors to explain how. No licenses required for those at the event. Not to mention free food!
October always has me guiding a variety of trips every year but this year has even more variety than other years. Last weekend was spent fishing with a family. Saturday we fished on Megunticook Lake in Camden. The weather was cool and very windy, we did manage to catch a few fish but the fall scenery was the best part of the trip to be sure. Staying out of the strong wind was important for everyone’s comfort.
After the big rains on Thursday and Friday we are starting one of those stretches of beautiful fall weather. Cool, almost frosty, at night warm and sunny during the day. Today there is not a cloud in the sky and it is crystal blue. Fall foliage is at about its peak adding to the scene.
Yesterday my clients and I saw a big bull moose who cooperatively stood about fifty yards away while we all took pictures for maybe fifteen minutes.
