Maine Fishing Report

January 15, 2024

Absolutely loved our fishing trip in Maine with Captain Jason! We managed to catch a Northern Pike and some Crappie, which was beyond exciting. The atmosphere on the boat was upbeat and everyone had a great time. It was a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, making for an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic day on the water

Maine Fishing Report - Belgrade Lakes Fishing 2023

March 30, 2023

Hey there, it's me, your guide Jason Cyr of Wilderness Adventures Outfitters & Guide Service, reporting on our latest fishing excursion in Great Pond, Belgrade Lakes. We targeted crappie and northern pike, and let me tell you, the pike fishing was excellent! Our clients had great success using live bait and a variety of lures. We found the pike in shallow water near weed beds and drop-offs, as well as in deeper water near points and structure. However, the crappie fishing was only average for the month of March. We still managed to catch some, but it took a bit more effort and patience. We found them in deeper water near submerged structure and using jigs and small minnows as bait. Overall, it was a great day out on the water and we had a lot of fun. If you're looking to catch some big northern pike, Great Pond in Belgrade Lakes is the place to be right now!
