Inlanders Guide Service has specialized in waterfowl hunting for the last 10 years and is now offering freshwater fishing to its list of services. Captain Daniel has been fishing these waters his whole life. He knows the best places to take you out for the most productive day.

The day will be spent on a 19' Nitro Z7 bringing together speed and agility with maneuverability. This will give you a great advantage when out on the water. There are seats for the whole group and both anglers can fish at the same time. This is a great parent-child adventure or couples fishing trip.

The Belgrade Lakes region has an abundant supply of trophy Bass, Northern Pike, and Panfish. Though not native to Maine, these invasive species make for good sport and put up an unforgettable fight. You can also catch Perch and Crappie on these trips.

Children over 5 are welcome on board and will love reeling in their first-ever catch. Kids love these trips and have a great story to tell their friends back at home.

Everything you need for a successful day of fishing is included in the price of the trip. From top-quality rods and reels to the live bait that the captain will prepare for you before the trip. Also provided are food and drinks for the day.

Everyone over 16 on your trip will need to buy a fishing license before the day. Maine regulations allow 2 lines in the water per person with live bait, giving you plenty of chance to reel in your dream catch.

    Phenomenal Day Catching Monster Pike!

    3/4 Day Trip on September 23, 2024 • 2 adults

    Captain Dan is truly exceptional! My wife and I are avid anglers, and for our 3rd wedding anniversary, we decided to do something special—head up to Maine for a chance to catch pike, something we'd never done before being from Georgia. After seeing Captain Dan's stellar reviews, I reached out to see if he could guide us on a pike-focused fishing trip. He responded promptly and we booked the trip at a very reasonable price. From the moment we arrived, Captain Dan made us feel right at home. He welcomed us aboard, showed us where to find the snacks, and we set off across a stunning lake surrounded by breathtaking wildlife—loons, eagles, you name it! Within minutes of hitting the water, we both landed our dream pike, and the experience only got better from there. For anyone looking for an unforgettable fishing adventure with a knowledgeable and personable guide, I can't recommend Captain Dan enough. He made our anniversary truly memorable!

    The pike that got away

    Half Day Trip (PM) on June 14, 2025 • 2 adults

    Daniel was on time, professional and had a great knowledge of the local fishing hole. Caught the biggest northern pike in my life on this trip. Just about had it in the boat then the line broke. Been fishing for pike since 1975 and this one was huge! Caught a bunch of large mouth bass and some small mouth bass, another pike and a big black crappie. My wife and I had a blast.

    Two big (4 pound) smallies!

    Full Day Trip on May 3, 2025 • 2 adults

    The weather was typical of Maine: not really what was forecast, and colder than expected. But, the trip was fun and we landed two of the biggest smallmouth bass I've ever seen. A four pound smallmouth is a rarity up here, and one smacked a jerk bait on top!

I started fishing as a teenager on the Kennebec river targeting Smallmouth Bass. My friends and I would run up and down the rivers and streams on a daily basis using an old 16' aluminum boat. We used light spinning tackle and small plastic finesse worms which seemed to work best with a weightless hook. My strong desire to catch fish hasn't changed much from those times. I'm thankful I was able to grow up in this scenic area and gain a great amount of fishing and navigational experience. Now in my 30's, I'm still able to enjoy fishing the many excellent lakes, pond, rivers, and streams that central Maine has to offer. My home is within a few miles of numerous excellent fisheries that are sometimes shared with the pros from the Outdoor Channels Major League Fishing. When you live in an area as great as central Maine, you might as well be a fisherman.
