Experience the Best Fishing in the North East
Maine
My name is Robert Lafreniere, the owner/operator of New England Fishing Collective LLC. I am a registered Maine freshwater guide servicing Southern Maine and beyond. Fishing with me is very seasonal and we target what fish are biting best when they're biting the best. I offer ice fishing for Pike, Panfish/Bass, Trout and my favorite target, Lake Trout in Southern and Mid- Coast Maine. Springtime is when things really get fun. Trout, salmon, bass and pike all become quite active and are the target throughout the summer. Then when things cool down, we continue the cycle with more pike and trout until things freeze over. Whether you are a seasoned vet, a family looking to get into fishing and enjoy the water or just looking to learn a thing or two about the fishing in New England, I am your guide.

Phil Anker at NEFC guides with Harrison Anglers in Western Mass. Harrison Anglers offers full and half-day fly fishing floats along the breathtaking waterways of Western Massachusetts and Southern Vermont with experienced local Guides. Enjoy a day on the water in search of trophy Brown and Rainbow Trout, Northern Pike, and more. Phil also has his NY state guides license and is beginning to explore wild browns and steelhead out west a bit more. While walk and wade is always an option, Phil prefers the comfort of his Aire Super Puma expertly rowing his clients to the bigguns. He is well equipped to target a variety of species but trout are really his specialty. Dont be fooled however, he can bring you to smallmout, pike or whatever else swims within casting distance.

TBC Guides: Mike Blatt operates in the Western Lakes Region of NH, Connecticut River, and Eastern Vermont. Lead Guide and owner Mike Blatt, is a born and raised southern fisherman from Louisiana, but has found a love of our northeast mountain waters near his home in Hanover, NH. (next to Dartmouth College).
Mike typically targets Northern Pike along with Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, Panfish, and a variety of trout.
Conventional spin and cast, plus fly fishing trips, are on a 21 ft. bass boat outfitted with the latest fish finding sonar technology. Ice fishing trips usually include a ride out with the Snowdog to the ice house or pop-up shelter. Mike's fishing style is very active and highly instructive so when people finish a trip with Mike they almost know how to do it themselves.
