I didn't.  I'm not much of a fisherman.  But Maine supposedly has some very good fishing.  There are inland lakes and streams, and of course the ocean, so there's opportunity for fly fishing, shore casting, and sea charters.

So, we've never been to Maine (OK, I crossed over one time when we were in NH - doesn't count).

When to go, where to stay, what to do?
Go to the beach. Go to the shipyard brewry their pumpkinhead beer is out now. Just relax. take a boat out onto the ocean. 

The wife and I are considerng buying a condo in the Old Orchard, Scarbough area maybe Kennebunk for a summer/Fall home. Heading up that way in a couple of weeks to just check a few places out, well also visiting family.

Oh, we're not going now. Didn't mean to imply that.

I'm looking at maybe early or late summer next year. Probably late.

A lot of my 'directs' are in Portland.  Great city.  August is peak, then July, early September.  You would be advised to plan ahead for lodging if you're aiming for those months, anywhere in Maine. 

We had a great time going in June when I was a teen, it's a bit early thus not super busy as New England area largely still in school and weather is sublime.  Acadia NP gets busy.    Upstate/inland Is a much different experience.  I'd probably plan ahead on either salt water or fresh water.

Maine has a fairly regimented licensed guide regulations.  My Dad and brother had a great sea duck hunting experience up the coast a bit.

bump for Cincy...

Roquefort Cheese

One of the best-known of all French cheeses, Roquefort comes from ewe's milk aged in the caves of Roquefort-sur-Soulzon in the south of France. Though similar cheeses are produced elsewhere, European law dictates that only those cheeses aged in Roquefort-sur-Soulzon's caves may bear the name "Roquefort." Distinctive veins of blue mold, found in the caves' soil, give the cheese its characteristic odor and strong taste of butyric acid.

Me too.  And Stilton.

But I like Roquefort the best, it's a little creamier and has a little more WHANG to it.  It's a result of using ewe's milk instead of cow's milk.
