Maine Hunting & Fishing

Maine is the Northeast's last great wilderness, with millions of acres of unbroken North Woods, thousands of lakes and ponds, and a rugged Atlantic coastline. Hunting guides in Maine, many of them licensed Registered Maine Guides, run moose hunts in the famous lottery-drawn zones, black bear hunts over bait and with hounds, and whitetail deer hunts where a big-woods buck is a genuine trophy. The guiding tradition here is among the oldest in the country.

Fishing charters in Maine split between cold inland water and the sea. Inland, guides chase wild brook trout, landlocked salmon, and lake trout in remote ponds reachable only by float plane or logging road. On the coast, charters target striped bass, bluefish, and groundfish. Whether paddling a canoe into a remote pond or trolling the rocky coast, Maine offers a back-to-basics outdoor experience.
