Guided Bass Fishing Trips
Your registered Maine fishing guide uses rafts, drift boats, and jet-drive bass boats to access remote stretches of water filled with the infamous, hard-fighting bass. Beginners and experienced anglers alike will enjoy a bass fishing trip on the Kennebec Watershed, with full and half day trips available.
Maine Bass Fishing on the Remote Rivers and Lakes of Maine
Join the experienced professionals at Kennebec River Anglers for a full day or half day of bass fishing in some of the best smallmouth fisheries Maine has to offer. The Kennebec River watershed is a haven for bass, salmon, and trout, with trophy sized smallmouth up to 5 pounds and as long as 23 inches caught each season on these waters. Your fishing guide knows these Maine waterways, and will assist in techniques and tackle selection as they bring you to the top fishing locations.
Bass Fish for a Full or Half Day
Your day starts at Northern Outdoors Adventure Resort, where you will meet your Maine guide for a full or half day trip. Each trip includes a Registered Maine Fishing Guide, all the necessary spin fishing equipment, transportation to/from the river, snacks, water and a hearty riverside lunch on full day trips. All our trips are catch and release so bring your camera! You’ll also want to bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and rain gear (rain jackets and pants are recommended). Although these are designed as spin fishing trips, you can request fly fishing. These trips can only be booked by phone – call us to discover the secret spots only the expert local guides know for rugged brook trout, acrobatic landlocked salmon, and sneaky smallmouth bass.
Please purchase your Maine Fishing License prior to the trip by visiting Maine IF&W or in person at our main lodge.
