Our Registered Maine Fly Fishing Guide, John Scangas, will work with you to plan a fly fishing trip in the Bethel area during your stay. Available April-October. Because the health and conservation of our native fish is critical, we will work with you to plan around water temperatures to choose which waters and fish species are available during your dates. Message us through the Contact Us page and we will get you connected with John & Alex to begin planning your trip! Guests are responsible for securing their own Maine State Fishing Licenses (required to fish).
Owner of Western Maine Yurts, Alex Poland is a fly fishing enthusiast with many years of experience fly fishing throughout Western Maine.
