FISH TALES GUIDE SERVICE
Let Us Get You on the Water!
FISHING TRIP OPTIONS
We can customize a day on the water that fits your needs.
DRIFT BOAT FLOATS
Kennebec & Androscoggin Rivers
Ben uses a Hyde 16'6" High Side Drift Boat equipped with bow and stern seats for fisherman to cast from while floating various stretches of either the Kennebec or Androscoggin Rivers where he will be able to put you on landlocked salmon, brook, brown or rainbow trout, trophy smallmouth bass or northern pike.
If you have never fished from a drift boat, you are in for a treat. The boat's unique design provides fisherman with a excellent opportunity to cast to fish that see little pressure from other anglers.
Full Day Float - $550
Half-Day Float - $375
WALK & WADE FLY FISHING TRIPS
Early Season & Fall Only - Southern Maine and Moosehead Lake Area
If boats aren't your thing or if you want something a little off the beaten path, maybe a walk & wade fly fishing trip on one of Maine's many trout and salmon streams or smaller rivers would fit the bill.
Walk & wade trips are limited to 2 anglers and Ben will lead you into some of the more remote locations and help you "match the hatch" and catch fish.
Full Day - $450
Half-Day - $300
Remote Pond Fly Fishing
Early Season & Fall Only - Moosehead Lake Area
The Moosehead Lake area has hundreds of small ponds that provide excellent fishing opportunities for wild brook trout. May through early July are the prime months for epic hatches. Ben will have you fishing via canoe or float tube for these beautiful trout and it is a fishing experience that you will not soon forget. It should be noted that hatches can be unpredictable so we recommend an overnight multi-day trip to increases your chances of of timing an amazing hatch. September offers some fantastic pond fishing as well when the trout are in their full spawning colors and eager to eat almost an fly that hits the water.
Remote pond trips are limited to one to two anglers but additional anglers can be added if an additional fee.
Full Day - $500
Half-Day - $350
