During the last few winters March was definitely a winter month with lots of snow and cold; not this one it is pleasant and warm so far. We have had a couple of days in the 50’s with pleasant sunshine. Most; but not all of our snow is gone; it can’t last much longer though. Seems like spring is here in a hurry this year. I am very ready to get back into the swing of guiding nature exploration and fishing trips. Of course there are still a fair number of days until the weather is consistently warm and pleasant enough for that.

I know that it is early in the season but I could not resist warm sort of, sunny and breezy. I called to see if the Lund Alaskan could go in for the annual spring overhaul. The answer was of course. So I spent the morning taking the cover off and taking the boat to Waldoboro. A sure sign of the approaching spring!

The last few mornings have been coated with wet snow. Temperatures have been warm for this time of year just around freezing. The result has been very wet snow conditions with some fog that has resulted in spectacular sunrises through patchy cloud cover. I went out early one morning and got a bunch of nice pictures but I think that this is the best of the bunch.

What do you think?

Last fall I had the chance to spend an afternoon with a videographer from Journey Maine TV on an afternoon fishing trip and it was a very pleasant time. To read Josh’s perspective on a Maine Outdoors fishing trip and see the video check it out here!

Maine Outdoors is participating in Smartbox this year. What is Smartbox you ask?

I will be offering a session at the LL Bean spring fishing event again this year. My presentation is scheduled for Saturday March 20th, at 2pm in the Maine Store in Freeport. This is always a well attended event with lots of interesting presentations and individuals. Below is the listing for my presentation that will appear in the LL Bean promotion.
Hope to see you there!
