Kennebec River Angler

About

Kennebec River Angler was founded by three very avid, some call us rabid, fishermen. As friends and whitewater rafting guides for over 20 years, Mike, Greg, and I have shared some great fishing adventures throughout the State of Maine. During these extended trips, our campfire conversations centered on the dream of putting together a guide service to showcase the great fishing we enjoy. The time finally became right for this to happen and we are proud to showcase our services as Kennebec River Angler. 

We offer outstanding fly fishing float trips in Maine’s Kennebec, Dead, and Penobscot River regions, for Maine’s four major cold water fish species right from our doorstep. Acrobatic landlocked salmon, rugged brown trout, frisky rainbow trout, and the legendary brook trout abound .

Our smallmouth bass trips are geared for both spin fishing and fly fishing making them perfect for beginners, kids and experienced anglers alike.  Full day and half-day smallmouth bass trips provide flexibility to your busy summer vacation schedule.  Our full day trips offer you a chance at a true trophy smallmouth in the 5 pound range and our half day trips provide fast action with 30-50 fish landed in a single trip.

Spend time with our knowledgeable and experienced guides who will assist in tackle selection, fish location and proven techniques, all while you enjoy the beauty of our remote locations. From true tail-water fisheries below Maine’s hydroelectric dams, to freestone sections of braided river, and remote mountain lakes and ponds, we have a variety of outstanding water to choose from.

Each of our trips includes a Registered Maine Guide and we supply transportation to and from your local accommodation to the river. Fly rods, spinning gear, flies and tackle are all supplied by us allowing you to travel lightly, but feel free to bring your own gear with you.  We also provide snacks and water along with a hearty riverside lunch on full day trips. All our trips are catch and release so be sure to bring your camera! You’ll also want to bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and rain gear (rain jackets and pants are highly recommended as we do fish in the rain).



Activities

Kennebec Gorge Full Day Float
The Forks, ME
This remote section of the Kennebec River is our showcase trip. We are the only fishing outfitter that guides on this rugged section. Well known for its exciting class 4 whitewater rapids, the Upper Kennebec Gorge transforms into a pristine Maine stream and fly fishing haven for brook trout and salmon when the dam is not releasing those big water flows. It has a hidden gem of a fishery located deep in a bedrock canyon. Solitude is the name of the game in the Gorge.

While rowing our fishing raft or drift boat, our Registered Maine Guides provide river knowledge and excellent boat handling to get you into the right position. This is a perfect way to gain confidence in a variety of fly fishing techniques. We offer several river options for your day of fishing. Each trip includes beverages, snacks, a hearty lunch, a Registered Maine Guide, and all the equipment you need for a great day of fly fishing.
