Family-Friendly Fishing Trips on the Androscoggin River with Maine Fly Guide

If you're looking for an unforgettable family adventure in Maine, a guided fishing trip on the Androscoggin River with Maine Fly Guide is the perfect choice! Whether you're an experienced angler or it's your very first time fishing, Captain Brandon will make sure you have a fun, safe, and successful day on the water.

A Perfect Trip for Families and Young Kids

Fishing with young kids? No problem! Captain Brandon has years of experience guiding families and introducing children to fishing. He has been taking his own boys out on the water since they were just days old, so he knows exactly how to make the trip enjoyable for kids of all ages. Whether they’re eager to cast their first line or already have some experience, he’ll provide the patience, guidance, and encouragement they need.

The Best Time to Fish the Androscoggin River

Maine is a top destination for summer travelers, and June through September is the ideal time to fish the Androscoggin River. Many visitors fly into Portland Jetport or stay in Portland or Freeport to explore the coastline before heading to Acadia National Park. The great news? You don’t have to go far for an amazing fishing experience! Just 20 minutes north of Freeport, you’ll find convenient access to the river—right along your route to Boothbay or Acadia.

Your Adventure Begins on an 18’ Jet Boat

Your trip starts at the boat launch, where you’ll meet Captain Brandon and step aboard our 18-foot jet boat. From there, we’ll motor up or down the river to some of the best fishing spots. If you or your child would prefer to stay close to the launch, don’t worry—there’s great fishing right nearby!

Scenic Beauty, Wildlife, and Plenty of Fish

Although the Androscoggin River runs through an urban area, once you're on the water, you’ll feel surrounded by nature. Towering trees line the riverbanks, and wildlife is everywhere! Keep an eye out for eagles soaring overhead and other birds along the shoreline. The river is home to plenty of fish, making for an exciting day of casting and reeling in your catch.
