I think you guys up North should host a Meet And Greet, on a lake that's legal to fish 😀
Then maybe some of us southerners could carpool up
QUIT WISHIN AND LETS GO FISHIN !!!

In an effort to improve my public relation skills:

If you go to this link

http://www.maine.gov/ifw/fishing/laws/pdfs/2017fishinglawbook.pdf

And go to page 3/70 title General Fishing Laws for Inland Waters, you will see the special codes for the state (blue box bottom of page).  That includes S codes and Special season codes A, B, CI, and CO.

Then as you go down through to page 5 and beyond you will see an alphabetical listing of lakes.  This is an example:

ARNOLD BROOK LAKE, Presque Isle (North
Region). General fishing laws apply, except: A.
S-19. Motorboats over 10 horsepower
prohibited. Open to open water fishing from
October 1 - November 30 and open to ice fishing
in November: S-6, S-7.

Arnold Brook Lake is a Class A lake meaning it is open to icefishing until April 30th and the daily bag limit on trout is 2 (S-19).  You are also allowed to open water or icefish in November but with artificial lures only and all trout, togue and salmon released alive (S-6 and S-7).

Presque isle is in Aroostook County. 

Carry on.

 

You have my vote for the head of the HR department for Team Maine.
