There is so much to explore in the Maine outdoors, even in winter!
The best way to learn about Maine’s fish, wildlife, and habitats is to get outside and see what you can find. If you’re looking for a fun way to make the most out of winter during vacation week, see how your beginner naturalist does with our winter scavenger hunt!

Here’s a hint: the more of your senses you use, the more you’ll discover.

Free Ice Fishing Weekend Coming Up!!

The February fishing report is now available!

We are looking forward to seeing lots of anglers making memories on the ice all month, especially during school vacation week! Find a spot and pick up some tips at mefishwildlife.com/fishingreport.

🎣 February 15-16 is Free Fishing weekend in Maine this year, and is another perfect opportunity to introduce new anglers to the sport! On these days, any person (except those whose license has been suspended or revoked) may fish without a license. All other laws and regulations apply on these days.

🧊Before heading out on the ice all anglers, new and experienced, should review ice safety guidelines at mefishwildlife.com/icesafety.

Let's see those flags!

🚣‍♂️ Lake Stewards of Maine (LSM) is looking for volunteers to join the Aquatic Invasive Species Travel Team during our 2024 summer field season. Volunteers are 🔑 to our efforts, and we seek dedicated and active friends to assist us this summer. Volunteers will aid LSM staff in surveying and rapid response efforts across Maine, help recruit local volunteers, and assist with workshops. AIS volunteers can expect to get on the water training, learn about native and invasive plant identification and classification, and see beautiful lakes around the State, including during our weeklong Northern Maine Initiative trip to Cross Lake. 🌊🌿

Volunteers can start assisting LSM right now in planning for our 2024 adventures. Those interested in raising awareness about AIS in Maine and having a true summer adventure learn more by emailing [email protected]. 📧🌞
