Maine Ice-Out Trolling:
When the ice melts in the Allagash or North Maine Woods in early May our Maine Ice-Out Fishing begins! Our native Brook Trout, salmon, and lake trout rise to the surface and feed aggressively for several weeks on smelt. Our Maine Ice-Out Fishing is done by Trolling flies, lures, and spoons from a 21′ Scott boat or traditional 20′ Grand Laker style canoe that can provide nonstop action for these highly sought-after game fish. Combined with a hot shore lunch, early-season fishing will create lasting memories and great stories.
Late May runs into June when our waters begin to warm. Starting in early June and running through the end of September fishermen know the Aroostook and Allagash watersheds for the exceptional Maine trout fishing on our rivers, lakes, streams, and ponds.
Fully Guided Maine Fly Fishing and Lodging Packages for 2023 are $490 pp. per day for Meals, Lodging, and Professional Guide services. Minimum of two clients in each party.* 9% state lodging tax and gratuities are additional. Gratuities are MUCH APPRECIATED but we DO NOT add them to our fees.

Seaplane service is available to the lodge along with airport pick-up.
