Sometimes good fishing is closer than you think! A good body of water in Southern Maine that has an abundance of Brook and Rainbow Trout is Kennebunk Pond in Lyman, Maine. Kennebunk Pond, Maine, is stocked heavily, but Kennebunk Pond is also fished heavily. To get there travel north on route 111 out of Biddeford for about four miles. Look for the Kennebunk Pond Road which is on the right when traveling west. The public beach is on the left around a mile down the road, if headed in from Rt. 111. They allow parking on the side of the road; but as things in Southern Maine become more congested, this could change.

Kennbunk Pond is a heavily fished during all fishing seasons. Make sure to show up early if you’re looking for a special spot. Kennebunk Pond has medium to high pressure in the summer time; you will need a small boat to launch. The launch is basically the beach and is very shallow for a ways out.

Be safe and have fun fishing!
