It’s a beautiful area and a great experience. Pick someone like Capt Chris on the Lucy B who knows the area and gives you history of it while your fishing. If you’re like me you’ll love to hear the stories while you’re reeling in the fish!

Captain Chris was by far an outstanding fisherman and boater, very knowledgeable and friendly. He put us on fish that were 40 inches plus, the last fish we caught was a slot fish 31" we safely released all fish, and couldn't have been happier with our trip. I will book again next year. You won't be disappointed with this Charter boat Captain.

fishing is hit or miss as it is any where, don't limit your self to only certain species, some may be bitting while others are not. Also most fresh water fish in Maine is not edible during summer months due to worms. Not sure about rivers though.

I only fished on Silver Lake so that's all I can comment on, but Silver lake is a beautiful lake with clean water and lots of vegetation for the bass to take cover. There are may coves, grassy areas, lilly pads, shady overhangs, and underwater structures where fish love to congregate. Elias too us to all of them.

Sometimes the fishing can be iffy but it is fishing! Even if you're not always going to catch something, it is still an enjoyable experience to have!

Hire Joe Coleman! Maybe remember the fish aren’t always biting, but if you have our luck, it’s a great place to fish. The scenery, seals, birds, and nature lessons alone make it worthwhile.

This was my first experience fishing in South Portland area, but feel you can’t go wrong with captain Chris and Lucy B. Charters. There is never a guarantee to catch fish, but captain Chris got us all hooked up. What more can you ask?

The fishing is a little tricky because the water is cold and the fish are not as active, but it is very rewarding when you do catch a fish.

We experienced exceptionally warm weather for the time of year. I'd plan on spending some time exploring the surrounding area and town, it's a neat place to explore.

Tough to respond because this was our first time, and we were up against hurricane waves. We got pretty lucky, but there are definitely great spots, and lots of options!
