Lessons learned: Maine is big, and Eastern Maine is more rural than you

can imagine, probably more rural than any other place east of the
Mississippi. Blueberry farms in Maine are big. Roads in Maine end
abruptly. Finally, the only way to be sure where you are is to have a
GPS.


I didn't get to fish that day, but I am not discouraged. I am moving
to an area with much wilderness- more every year, and I will enjoy
exploring it.

Maine has been my second home for the past 18 years or so. I am in
love with its many streams and ponds full of beautiful brook trout.

I understand you will be in East Machias; you can't get very much more
Down East than that. d;o) When you get to exploring it, don't forget
the Rapid River in the Ranchleys (grid 18 on the Maine
Atlas/Gazatteer). Gimme a call and I'll be your guide (fishing guide,
that is).
