Considering that the Lake isn't completely frozen/safe.....And the Derby is that weekend. I'm sure you'll have plenty of people out there!
I thought the derby was held on the weekend of the 21 and 22.

From what I've read, deep clear lakes with minimal spawning habitat like sebago tend to produce few but large pike. I'm sure there are some monsters in there. Wouldn't surprise me of someone catches a 30 lb fish out of there eventually while fishing for something else.
I would bring the Tundra. There should be plenty of parking at Jordan Beach. Lot of room to fish in just Jordan Bay. Plenty of better places to fish on Sebago but I've caught nice lakers in the bay. Free fishing days during the derby, Maine license not required, just letting you know. Good to see you come up, good luck! I'll be out there!
There is one reason why I don't fish Sebago any more.Fish Lengths: No Togue will be accepted for Derby entry between 23 inches and 33 inches.
In a few years you can take those kids and catch 33+ inchers because they didn't head to the smoker at 27 inches . patience grasshopper
Agreed. But yet, everything done down on Sebago is being done under the guise of "salmon management."
How many Fish has Your son caught over 23" He'll be Married and gone before that happens.
, 5 more years and that place will be a monster laker factory.
The few times I get a few kids out on Sebago I don't want to tell a kid he's too big have to throw him back 23"to33" I'll take them jigging Perch. Catch a prime fish for eating Smoking and throw him back . Screwed up law!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
