Learn To Identify New Target Lakes to fish in Maine!

Tuesday, Nov 17, 2026, Sea Dog Brewing, 1 Bowdoin Mill Island, Topsham, 6:00-8:00 pm

Stan Pauwels, an active member of the MMBTU chapter, chases salmon and trout on Maine lakes in winter, spring, summer and fall. Over the years, he

has visited 400+ lakes spread across the state to fish over open water or through the ice. However, it can be a challenge to continuously identify new targets lakes to fish. Stan will present an approach that uses 7 readily-available sources of information to help identify target lakes, determine how to get on the water, what type of craft to use, what species to target, where to place lures (in summer), and what activity level to expect. Merrymeeting Bay chapter of Trout Unlimited.

Everyone is invited to attend the Merrymeeting Bay monthly gatherings with our cold-water conservation organization as we gather sportspeople and conservationists.
