Moscow, Maine Fishing Tip of the Week
By The Unregistered Maine Guide
It was a nice summer afternoon. My wife, our three boys and I had been camping for two days. As we sat around camp soaking up the sun, Fisherman Joe suggested that we go fishing. He had new equipment for fly fishing and wanted to try his luck this afternnon. We decided this would be our adventure for the afternoon. We loaded up the boats with our fishing gear. Fisherman Joe and Mike in one boat, Queeny, Justin and myself in the other and off we went to the north end of the pond. Fisherman Joe pulled into one cove and I into the next one up. The fishing was very slow but the peace and quiet was worth the wait. We could see Fisherman Joe working the new fly rod and Mike sitting patiently, hoping to see him catch the big one. We went on with our fishing an weren’t paying much attention to the other boat when all of a sudden the peace and quiet was broken with hooting and hollering from the boat of Fisherman Joe and Mike. Fisherman Joe cried, “I’ve got one! Come quick!” Mike was hollering to hurry. So we pulled in our lines, started the motor and headed to them to see the catch of the day. We pulled up next to their boat and much to our surprise Fisherman Joe had quite a catch. On the end of his line was Mike hooked by his chin. It was quite a sight to see. We went back to camp and managed to get the hook out of Mike’s chin.
Tip of the week: when learning to fly fish, make sure everyone is at a safe distance.
