Brown Trout

Maine Fishing Report

It's March and we're looking at the ice conditions as this winter has been very mild. Ice is plentiful but well below average thickness for this time of year. Anglers should be careful in the usual bad areas, especially near flowing water, pressure ridges, and natural bottlenecks. As the sun rises, the exposed rocks and shallows become warmer during the day, forming a thin layer of ice around the edges. The good news is that the long-term forecast looks seasonally colder, so hopefully, the ice will hold for a month.
