Fishing season started early this year with the early opening of the Maine Fishing Season and early stocking of selected ponds and streams. The weather for the first two weeks of April has been winterlike in Maine with several snowstorms, rainstorms, high winds, chilly days, and below-freezing nights. Water temps have stayed cold and fishing slow. Still for those persevering, fish can be caught.

I have been exploring the various tailwaters downstream from the dams on the Presumpscot River including the Sebago Dam, North Gorham Falls North Gorham Pond Dam, Dundee Dam, Gambo Dam, Mellison Dam, etc. I also have explored a few small streams that hold wild brookies.

First smallmouth of the year. The photo doesn’t do it justice – it was easily over three pounds.
I can’t say I have caught many fish but managed to hook several different species including smallmouth bass, brook trout, brown trout, and landlocked salmon while casting (not trolling). Believe it or not several came courtesy of a dry fly. I have been fishing early season small black/brown stonefly imitations because these early-season insects have been everywhere in southern Maine. See my column about them in the May issue of The Maine Sportsman when it comes out.
Early season, little brown stonefly. They have been everywhere this spring.
First landlock of the year and on a dry fly – black klink emerger. Hooked a nice brown as well on the same fly but he wiggled off.
