Title: Week at Rangeley
Post by: Darby on May 10, 2022, 06:21 AM
Yesterday was day 1 of a week at Rangeley.  Little slow yesterday morning.  Misses 2, landed 2.  This one was 3.56lbs.  I let mine go that was around 2lbs.

Wow, those are some nice salmon.  Congrats.  Few and far between for me on that lake.  Heading to East Grand in June and hoping to get a couple there.

Landed this 15" Brookie last night.  Really fat fish. On the water at 4:30 and another flat calm day on Rangeley.   Broke one off early, need some wind to mix things up

Fishing is picking up.  La ded 4 salmon this morning, kept 1 that weighed 2.2lbs.  Didn't take a pic.  Got one to the boat that was over 4lbs.  She came flying out of the water, and 5 feet down threw the hook.  Looked beautiful with a once again flat calm weather.  6 days in a row with no wind, u heard of for Rangeley in May
