Friday Night BBQ and State Weed Inspection

It’s still early, but as of right now the weather leading up to and on the day of our Lake Messalonskee/Long Pond event is looking great!

Forty anglers are already registered! If you’d like to take part in this event as well, register here.

If you’ve already registered or intend to, don’t forget the Friday Night BBQ and state weed inspection.

Maine law requires all kayaks to be inspected, so head on over to Snow Pond and eat some great food at a great price ($12.96 per person) while your kayak is inspected. You can sign up for the BBQ here.

Cash bar will also be available!

Looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend.


Lake Added to Our Next Event!

Based on the number of anglers that fished our Cayuga Lake event—which was on Mother’s Day weekend and had less than desirable weather—we had concerns that we would go over our cap for our next event on Messalonskee Lake.

To avoid any potential roadblocks and dumping a very last-minute decision into the anglers’ laps, we reached out to the state and acquired an additional permit for Long Pond, which is connected to Messalonksee Lake via Belgrade Stream (separated by a dam).

Long Pond fishes very similar to Messalonskee and has many of the same characteristics, though its shoreline is much more undeveloped and natural compared to Messalonskee.

Anglers will now be able to fish either lake (or both)! We hope this is enough notice to anyone planning to fish the event.

You can register on Fishing Chaos up until 5 PM on June 4.
