Maine Trip
Spent a week in Maine for the 4th. Got out 3 straight days.
First day went to Crescent Lake in Raymond Maine. Got out early before the Woo-Hooers and tried to fish off shore. Found some humps and drop offs. Got a couple light taps on the C-Rig but no hook ups. Through a drop shot, T-Rig, C-Rig and jig but nothing. Headed into the river that connects Crescent Lake to Panther Pond. This is where I ended up spending the remainder of the day. After seeing fish breaking the surface I put on a spook but no luck. I get a little further down the river and there were spare pads, ultra clear water. I decided to tie a frog on and over the course of the next 6 hours caught 12-15 bass. Most were keeper size, some quality but no giants.
Second day went to Dundee Pond in Raymond. Bit of a carry to get the boat in. Picked off a small LM going up the river to Dundee then got a SM on a crankbait. Thunder rolled in so I headed out.
Last day got a full day in on Thomas Pond. Tons of off shore structure. I fished humps and boulders for 3 hours with not a bite. Finally made it to a point and found some boulders. Started with the c-rig and picked off 2 right away. Threw the drop shot and picked up 3 more. One really good smallie. All good size 2+ pounds.
Over the course of the next 4 or 5 hours picked up a fish here and there, but nothing consistent.
Love that area of Maine. Stayed at Crescent Lake once, now stay on Pleasant Lake.
