Catch, photograph and release has been a strict policy at Whisperwood
for many years. This
coupled with the lack of fishing pressure, an abundance of structure, a healthy
food chain (smelt, crayfish, mayflies, etc.) and a highly successful annual
spawn provides you with all the ingredients of a quality fishery.
Whisperwood
is located at the south end of Salmon Lake, a glacial body of water with a
variety of fish holding structure. At the north end of the lake, a channel
allows easy access to McGrath pond. The
primary species of fish you can expect to catch are smallmouth and largemouth
bass, as well as brown trout, white perch, yellow perch and pickerel. Spin
fishing, fly-fishing, or trolling can catch all species of fish.
Please Click
on this image to see the PROPER WAY to hold a bass. This will insure a safe and healthy
grip to take your photo and then the bass can be
released unharmed.
Our thoroughly maintained boats and motors will
enhance your fishing experience or you may bring
your own boat if you wish. We have our own boat launch and docking facilities
with electricity. Fishing tackle, licenses and gasoline are available.
If you are thinking of using a
Maine Guide, arrangements can be made for full
or half day
Guided Trips on Salmon
Lake or other Belgrade Lakes of your choice.
Please try to make arrangements with us before your arrival.
Winter Fishing in the Belgrade Lakes
is terrific too!
