Introduction
Maine Fly Fishing
Maine Fly Fishing on the scenic Androscoggin and Magalloway Rivers are popular trips with our customers. For more remote excursions, we offer treks to the Rapid River. We also guide New Hampshire outings on the Peabody, Ammonoosuc, and Ellis Rivers.
Anglers can fish for salmon, brookies, rainbows, browns, and small mouth bass. We stock a full line of flies – the largest fly selection in Western Maine – with local fly patterns. Resident and non-resident fishing licenses are always available.

Says Scott Stone, President of the Upper Andro Anglers Alliance and TU member, “ We’re really blessed to be able to fish in this area of Western Maine which provides the perfect environment for catching trout. We hope that anglers of all ages and abilities will attend and leave with a greater understanding of the sport and lots of fishing goodies too.”
