The meat on that rainbow looks fantastic!  I've caught rainbows in a few places, but never in Maine...and never have I seen one that looked like that on the inside.  And on top of that...smoked!  Now I'm getting hungry...

You want the ones with the U shaped stem, NOT round.

The Ostrich fern aka fiddleheads also seem to have more of the brown paper-like covering on them than the other types of ferns. But the lawn grass-green color and U-shaped stem is the best way to ID them.

Kaleb,
I pick at a few places in Sidney and WTVL in and around brooks near the Kennebec river. If interested in going, send a PM. The fiddleheads there are ready for picking just after the Smelts run in this area and at around the same time as the perch run in Belgrade. Usually early to mid May.

I can't wait till mid may to head north and troll a couple ponds in off the beaten path for big square tails and mud hens.  Floating the river and casting for rainbows and browns is hard to beat to

What's a mud hen?
