Trout and Salmon
Come fish Rangeley with us! We've been spent many years on the rivers and ponds of this region, and we know them very well.
We guide on the Magalloway and Rapid rivers here in the Rangeley Region from May through the end of September. We guide on other rivers and ponds in the area, as well.
We also have trout and salmon opportunities in southern Maine in May/June and again in October and November.
Magalloway River
The Magalloway holds many brook trout and landlocked salmon. This is a wade only trip, and we can supply you with all necessary equipment.
The best times to fish for big fish are from mid-May until the end of July. The further we get into June and early July, the better your chances of catching large fish on dry flies. We try to guide as much as we can during this time period for this reason. If you can get here, this is the best time to be in Rangeley!
Rapid River
The Rapid is home to some very large brook trout and good sized landlocked salmon. Every time you go into the Rapid, it's an adventure. The best conditions on the Rapid are from late May to early July and later in the season in September. Mid to late July and August aren't always worth a trip as conditions are often too warm, and smallmouth bass and small salmon dominate the river. The last two weeks in September can be phenomenal, so if you're able to come up it can be a great time to catch quality, colored up brook trout.
*Please note that trips on the Rapid are full day trips only and can be physically demanding. If you're new to wading in rivers, this is not a great place to start. Please consider this before booking this trip. This is a great trip for intermediate and advanced fly fishermen.
**There are no half day trips on the Rapid
