Get ready to explore one of the premier Smallmouth fisheries of the East Coast with Jim Neville Outdoors! Your guide for the day is a dedicated angler who never stops fishing. He's been fishing in Maine his whole life and he's determined to show you why the Pine Tree State is one of the best spots for freshwater fishing.

Jim was in the Marines for 20 years before starting his own guide service. If the military taught him anything, it's focus, persistence, and discipline. He applies that same drive and determination while fishing and encourages his customers to stay positive and believe in their ability. He loves taking beginners, especially kids, out on the water and if he's able to turn you into a fisherman, then he considers it a successful trip!

Your journey will take place on a 16' Alumacraft fishing boat, equipped with top-notch navigational electronics, a live bait tank, fishing tackle, and safety gear. The boat accommodates up to 2 guests, including children ages 12 and up, so be sure to invite the whole family! You'll also have a cooler stocked with snacks and beverages so that you stay replenished and energized for the whole ride.

You'll be fishing on the Penobscot River, targeting the elusive Smallmouth Bass. This river is famous for its incredible Bass fishing on light tackle, so get ready to put up a fight! Your guide will provide you with an array of state-of-the-art rods and reels to choose from so you don't have to lug your own gear around.

Just be sure to purchase a fishing license online and arrive at Elks Lodge Landing on time and ready to fish. Pack some sunscreen, mosquito repellant, and rain gear in case the weather decides to change. Everything else will be covered so that you have the most relaxing and care-free trip possible.

Join Jim Neville Outdoors and get ready for an incredible adventure in Maine. Last but not least, bring a camera to capture each special moment, and create lasting memories with your family on the Penobscot River!

Great Day on the Water!
Half Day Trip on July 1, 20251 adult

Have been itching to get out on Pushaw Lake while in the region for vacation and not only was Jim nice enough to accommodate me, but he even picked me up on my dock. Had a great morning crushing large mouth after large mouth while enjoying some amazing scenery. Jim was professional, highly knowledgeable, and great at getting me out of the weeds!

Steady Bite & a Happy Wife!
Half Day Trip on June 27, 20252 adults

Captain Jim was in the water and ready for us on time. He was patient with my wife who has never fresh water fished and had her reeling up small mouth after small mouth the entire time. Jim was professional, knowledgeable, and had us on fish the whole trip. As a side bonus, we saw multiple pairs of bald eagles which are way bigger up close than you would think. Go Birds!

I don’t have enough positive things to say about our experience with Cpt. Jim. He was great with my young son - patient, attentive, informative and (probably most important) hilarious. Put us on fish from the jump and it never slowed down. Worked around the weather and our travel hiccups. Don’t skip this if you’re in the area, especially if you want to show your kid a good time. 10/10. No notes.
