Dead River Description
The Dead River, also sometimes called the West Branch, is a river in central Maine in the United States. Its source is Flagstaff Lake, where its two main tributaries, South Branch Dead River and North Branch Dead River, join. It flows generally east to join the Kennebec River at the West Forks in The Forks, Maine. Leeds borders the Androscoggin River and Androscoggin Lake. Running between these two bodies of water, through Leeds, is the Dead River. This small river has the unique ability to run two ways, depending on whether the Androscoggin Lake or River is higher. There is some of Maine's most productive Bass fishing here. Large and Smallmouth enthusiasts will find an abundance of 3 - 5 lb. bass, and if you're "Good" greater than 8 lbs. can be caught. Riverbend Campground in Leeds Maine is on the river.
