OH YEEEEHAW!

I was hoping there'd be an open water counterpart to iceshanty....I am actually more of an openwater nut than a hardwater one.  Look forward to an exciting season.

 Hi all im in. I can't wait! I love trolling for large salmon and brookies in the Rangeley chain. Striped bass on bait are fun too. Hey ieatanimals about 30 miles north of Auburn are three ponds you might try for brookies. All in west Sumner, Washburn (small trout) Shagg (medium trout and splake) and little Concord (some very large brookies). Does anyone Know the best way to patch rivet leaks in an aluminum boat? Good luck all. 8)

Memtsman,
You can seal them up by re-bucking them in place.  How big of a boat is it?  And do you have access to an air hammer?  Its a little time consuming but definately worth it in the long run.

Title: Re: Maine Boys
Post by: Troutcall on Apr 07, 2004, 09:15 PM
A number of flowing waters in southern Maine are stocked in the fall with larger fall yearling trout and offer a good opportunity in the spring to catch larger hold-over brook & brown trout. These waters include, the Salmon Falls River below South Berwick Dam (browns), Mousam River below Route 1 in Kennebunk (browns), Ogunquit River above, as well as below Route 1 (browns), Saco River below Skelton Dam in Dayton (browns+brook), Saco River - Limington Rapids, Route 25 (browns), and Pleasant River - special management section in Windham

Good luck.
