Maine’s Best Fishing

Weatherby’s has been a fly fishing and spin fishing destination for sportsman for more than 100 years. The Grand Lake Stream Region of Downeast Maine is renowned for some of the best fly fishing and spin fishing for smallmouth bass, landlocked salmon, and lake trout in the world! Restricted to fly fishing only since 1903, the three-mile long Grand Lake Stream offers fantastic brook trout and salmon fishing with extended fall fishing until October 25th.Come and experience Grand Lake Stream fishing. Maine fishing at its finest!

We also fish dozens of pristine, undeveloped Downeast Lakes for Smallmouth Bass, pickerel, yellow and white perch. As a result, this provides quality fishing opportunities for anglers of all abilities throughout our season. As always, ask us about private group or individual instruction and guide services. Maine fishing at it’s best!

Family Fishing Vacations

Weatherby’s is a family friendly Maine sporting lodge. We cater to needs of kids and parents regularly. We believe that sharing a fishing vacation with your child or grand child is one of the greatest activities you can choose. And it is time that will remembered forever.

While not required, we recommend fishing with one of our guides either on the lakes or in Grand Lake Stream to maximize your and your child’s experience. Leave the fishing lines and bait or flies to us, that way you can enjoy your own time on the lake or stream along side your youngster.

In summer, we offer lodging specials for families. It’s important to share your passion, teach your kids to fish!

Maine Fly Fishing Schools

Learn to fly fish while on vacation in Maine! We offer fly fishing schools for all anglers or our popular womens fly fishing school.

Weatherby’s Fly Fishing School boasts some of New England’s finest fly casting instructors with decades of experience among them. Fly casting, whether it be on a lake for smallmouth bass or pan fish or in a rapid stream for brook trout and salmon, is an individual and personal art.

We offer custom schools to meet individual angler’s skill set and needs. Our scheduled fly fishing school as well as our private instruction will help you gain the insight into the art of angling in such a way that you will come away from any fishing trip with a quality experience.

Ice Out Trolling

When the ice melts on West Grand in late April, the salmon and lake trout rise to the surface and feed aggressively for several weeks on smelt. Trolling flies and spoons from a Grand Laker can provide non-stop action for these highly sought after game fish. Combined with a hot shore lunch with broiled salmon, guide coffee, roasted chicken, potatoes and onions – early season salmon fishing at ice-out will create lasting memories and great stories.

Registered Maine Guides

We offer guided fishing trip in the Downeast Maine region. At Weatherby’s, our Registered Maine Guides strive to make your day in the field one that you will remember into the future and one that will stand out among other guided days you might have had in the past.
