If you're ready to go fishing in Brookton, book a trip with Expedition 207. We also have a three bedroom rental close by. Just message us about it.

Smallmouth Bass, Perch, and more are in the cards, depending on when you go. You can expect to do some light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Wade also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

Capt. Wade runs a new 20' Princecraft aluminum fishing platform with capacity for 3 passengers. Comfortable seating And large, casting decks for and aft, with walk-through windshield and foul weather protection, if necessary. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures.

You will need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species might be protected or require a tag to keep them, so make sure you know what to expect.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed but only limited amounts. There will be some light snacks for you on board.

Captain Wade has 40+ years of experience on this specific body of water and has personally, charted 25% of this 7000 acre lake.

The click of a button is the only thing keeping you from a great day on the water with Expedition 207!  Ask Capt. Wade about their lodging, accommodations and package rates as well.

Half Day Trip with Captain Wade
Half Day Trip (PM) on August 27, 2025

I’m not the most experienced of fisherman and I’ve been wanting to learn and hit the waters all summer long and I’m so glad I finally pulled the trigger on this fishing trip. Captain Wade is very knowledgeable of baskahegan lake, the fish and their feeding times, and is an excellent fisherman himself. He taught me a lot and we had a great time. He’s a wicked funny guy and I can’t recommend him enough. I’ll definitely be back for another fishing trip. (Also the AirBNB he rents out was pretty solid and was right down the road from where we launched. Very cozy)

thanks so much Ryan, I had an excellent time with the both of you and I’m looking forward to seeing you back. That nighttime trip was wild stuff for sure. Definitely some Jurassic Park moments.

Wade was an awesome guide that provided a great day of fishing on Baskahegan Lake. He has a top notch boat and modern equipment with knowledge of the lake from a lifetime of experience. The weather was tough with a lot of wind but Wade was able to put us on the fish despite the challenging conditions. It was a great day overall landing over 25 fish.

Fabulous fishing day!
Full Day Trip on July 19, 2025

Wade cautioned us before starting out that the lunar cycle and weather conditions this day probably would limit the fishing hits. I'd like to see what a good day produces! We landed 31 great fish (two people fishing) in the morning! Bass and pickerel. We were just grinning from ear to ear the entire time. I've done a lot of fishing in Maine, but this was by far the best day. I think I can attribute that to Wade's knowledge of the fish and the lake. The lake is amazingly treacherous - lots of rocks and shoals in very unexpected places (don't even think about taking you boat here unless you know where you are going and go slow!). Wade has been mapping the lake for years and showed us some of the fascinating topography under the surface. He took us around the lake, the sonar showing various structures including glacial deep holes - and the fish lurking there. The lake is also very big and windy (be careful if you think you want to canoe on it) - which can affect the fishing, but Wade knows his way around that and we had no problem with it. I can't say enough about Wade (I sound like a salesman), the man is exceptionally knowledgeable about fishing and the lake, but also just plain congenial and friendly - and very open to sharing his understanding of fishing and the lake. You can't go wrong here. 31 fish on supposedly a "bad" day proves that! Peter Hunt

Thank you so much Peter for your kind words. A group like yours makes it way too easy. I’m thrilled that you had a great trip and we have set some new goals for next time.. lofty as they may be ..looking forward to sharing more knowledge of the lake and telling some stories.

Wade will get you to the fish and share a story or two along the way!
Half Day Trip (PM) on July 2, 2025

Had an amazing time on the boat with Wade! He certainly knows the lake and is excited to share its secrets and beauty. Matching my preference for fishing the surface with the wind direction and time of day, it wasn't long before we hit consistent action with some smallies. Wade and I hit multiple sites over the afternoon and each had unique bottom structure that proved key to hooking up to some nice size bass. While great for smallies, the lake is generally very shallow... I was glad Wade was navigating and not me! Hope to be back to get a full day in so I can see what the morning action is like!

Thanks for those kind words Mr. Mike, it’s always a great time hanging out with you and your brother, always sad to see it end. Glad you enjoyed your time. Looking forward to seeing you again again. Awesome pic by the way.

I have been a lifelong commercial potato grower stuck in fisherman's body. I've finally retired from farming, and I am now able to dedicate my time to my real passion and calling. I have fished in brooks and streams and oceans. Maine, Florida and the Keys enjoying the thrill of many species. plus 40 years of experience on Baskahegan Lake. This is a very rocky lake and can be tricky to navigate. I have used auto charting to map a large portion of this lake, which does not have detail charts or maps available in digital form.. this allows for precise boat placement and safety . Our fishing platform is no less than the best on the lake for comfort, stability, and protection in all weather. We aim to deliver Bass Pro performance with charter comfort. Maine biologists have been working diligently and it seems to be paying off. Our small mouths are getting bulkier every year with alewives and smelt as a rising food source. Also, the scenery is exquisite with vistas in every direction. With very little competition from other anglers there are times when I will be the only boat on the water and sometimes for days. We also offer the only dock access(private or public)on this waterbody as well as a rental cabin close by.
