  • Dead River Rough Cut
    Posted: Feb 05 2012 03:42 PM

    Dead River Rough Cut Have you ever wanted a glimpse into the old ways of Maine? Or a time before the internet, Facebook and Twitter? A time in Maine when times were tough and winters were long?

    Gray Ghost Productions Blog: Rolling On Salmon Take 2 - The Penobscot River Salmo salar. Arguably translated as “the leaper,” this Latin term describes a fish whose attempts at doing what it is genetically pre-programmed to do are nothing short of amazing. History has proven that if you give this fish an opportunity to succeed, it will. Against all odds. Yet, since the American R... Read More...

    In my fishing world and in my life there are things in my memories that stick out. It is almost like in the movies when the character has a flashback to when they were a kid and there are actors playing out the part. I will have those random flash backs and there are no actors, just me. One that I often have is when I am at the age of 12 or 13 and I am in 6th or 7th grade. I have to pick a sub... Read More...

    Recent rains caused the latest Smith River trip to get cancelled. As part of 'PLAN B' we did a two day float down another river. I was lucky enough to get invited to fun float with my friend John along on the trip. The water was high and cloudy, but on the drop and clearing. This river doesn't have a ton of fish, but a reputation for big fish. John and I had never been on it be...Read More...
