GBTU Spring 2026 Trip to Weatherby's Resort

Join fellow GBTU members this spring at Weatherby’s resort, one of the oldest and most famous sporting lodges in the country. Located in Down East Maine, Weatherby’s fishing resource is truly world class.  Three-mile-long Grand Lake Stream has been fly fishing only since 1902 and is home to one of four strains of landlocked salmon found in the lower 48. Gin clear waters, long smooth pools and steep fast water all challenge the fly angler and provide the reward of a leaping landlocked salmon. Weatherby’s also offers fishing in dozens of pristine and undeveloped glacial lakes for smallmouth bass where 50-100 fish days are common.  So, whether you are interested in salmon and trout or smallmouth bass, Weatherby’s can provide what you are looking for.

The GBTU trip includes meals and lodging for three nights and two full days of guided fishing with the option to fish on departure day.

The dates coincide with the start of the salmon run between big lake and west grand lake.  Tactics include nymphing and streamer fishing on floating and sink tip lines.  The water is cold, so plan on dressing warm!

The GBTU trip dates are Thursday, May 7 arrival to May 10, Sunday departure.  Three nights and two full days of guided fishing with the option to fish on departure day.

The package includes a private bedroom in a shared cabin, meals from dinner on May 7 through lunch packed to go on Sunday, May 10.  Beer and wine are included with dinner, however personal beverages are welcome and encouraged as Weatherby’s is not licensed to sell alcohol.

Three nights lodging with two days guided fishing is $1397 per person, which does not include 9% tax on food and lodging or gratuities for staff.  The rate includes a 10% TU discount on food and lodging.
