What do you need to bring? Maine Outdoors will supply all of the equipment that you will need. Lifejackets, paddles, fishing rods, lures, bait, drinks and even rain jackets. We always recommend that you bring along a jacket as even on the nicest days the air can get cool. Please feel free to bring your own fishing equipment if you have it.
The Maine Professional Guides Association has developed a series of videos designed to demonstrate catch and release techniques; the press release is below. Much of the video was shot on a Maine Outdoors Family Fishing Trip last September and provides a really good view of that trip on an almost perfect early fall morning. These videos will be shown at various public events and can be found online at the Maine Professional Guides Association’s YouTube channel.
New this year!
A family fishing trip can also be done on the Maine coast in one of our harbors or among the nearby islands where we will pursue schools of mackerel. Please call for the details of this special adventure.
