Well, its been set guys. Staying on Webber Pond 9/25 thru 6/2. Looking forward to getting around the lakes up there. As we get closer any suggestions would be appriciated. Also, if you know of any odd rules/regulations I need to know that you could pass on would be great. I see that I have to register/pay Maine to put my boat in the water there. Thanks.

5/25 to 6/2? And you need a weed sticker ($20), not a registration.
All good info, thanks. You even caught my typo, I will be there 8/25 thru 9/2.
It's almost time, going to be there Aug. 25 thru Sept. 2. Didn't realize at the time that it was Labor Day, but that is the way the work schedule landed.
My wife and I will be visiting several lakes in the area including:
ThreeMile Pond, Great Pond, China Lake, Messalonskee Lake, Long Pond, Cobbosseecontee Lake, Androscoggin Lake, and Webber Pond.
Can you tell me which would be best for the Labor Day weekend, based on boat traffic and boat ramp space? Any other fishing specific information you are willing to share would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott
Here, now guys, looking forward to this, keep everyone updated, wife already had 2 solid fish from dock.
OK, fished ThreeMile Pond today, 10 or so small fish. Hopefully they get bigger from here.
the smaller ponds/lakes would probably be you best bet on the weekend.Originally Posted by Need5fish

Fished China Lake today. 5 or so largies, biggest was 3#.
What type of baits are you throwing ? You should have bigger and a lot more fish at both
Jerry,
Fishing topwater early in morning, buzz bait is getting good bites. Primarily fishing shallow 10' and less with the wife with me she doesn't really like blindly casting into open water. Have tried some senko, jig, crankbait, swimjig, flick shake, and chatterbait. Most fish have been coming on moving baits in cabbage. Could always be better, but could also be worse so I am not complaining, especially considering the trip started with a blown wheel bearing 1 1/2 hours into this trip from NC. Always looking to try something different if you care to help.
Thanks,
Scott
Fished the Cobb today. Very nice lake, nothing like what I have fished before. Ended up with about 10 fish, largest being about 4#, rest were primarily small. First time catching some small mouth, they were so small didn't give the fight I was hoping for.
Day off today, wife needed a break, so went to Reid Park in Georgetown. Tomorrow going to Great Pond. Keep everyone updated.
How's the water temps and weather? Are the weeds alive or dead? Headed up there myself next week. Sebago Lake.
Haven't paid too much attention to WT, locals said it dropped 8-10 last Monday after a cold night, it got down to 48 degree air temp. Weeds are still alive. Weather has been perfect, one night of rain but it was over by 8 am. Been in the high 50's low 60's around 5:30 or 6:00 warming to the mid 70's very pleasant for fishing. Suppose to drop again over the next few days. Good luck.

Went to Great Pond today. Zeroed. One pike, that was it. I tried everything I could think of in my short amount of time but came up with nothing. On to Webber Pond tomorrow, on the bright side I caught 4 fish in about 20 min. from the dock at the house. I should say that I have not spent full days on any of these lakes, been getting there around 5:30-6:00 and leaving around 1-3, due to the wife's limitations. Till tomorrow.
Fished Webber today, caught between 20-30 fish. Mostly small, several around 3#. Caught them in cabbage, under docks, in hydrilla, and other areas with about every type of bait you could imagine. A really enjoyable day. Planning the same again tomorrow.
Way to go Scott! There's really no reason to leave where your at. Glad you and the Mrs. got into them and had some fun. Especially after some frustrating days.
Ruff,Way to go Scott
I don't really get frustrated out on the water, I'm pretty patient, if I don't catch them, five minutes after I leave the ramp I am ready to go back and try again. Thanks for your support.
Fished Webber on Sunday with my wife. She had a good day. It was here best day getting 10 or so in a short time, later she went on to tell me that was her whole point of the trip she had chosen. I will wrap this post up when I get home and can resize some photos.
