This guy is into the whole old fashioned day on the lake fishing experience He can provide all the fishing gear bait etc And for anyone wanting to fish the entire day his takes his cooking gear and uncooked food At lunch you go ashore and gets some heat going and cooks a full course meal One day we had pork chops a baked potato and fresh brewed coffee As long as he knows that is what you are interested in doing it it is the way the fishing for the day includes Because we have been friends we stayed at his house At least in the past he would put people up in his house Well one night he ordered lobster and clam and he made supper with all the fixings .It really is a more than one day experience I you are into a couple days of canoe fishing for bass and landlocked salmon it can be a very nice way to kick back and relax .I am not a big fisherman So the fishing was not my reason to go Havin said that the weather was really wet and dreary for July and the fishing was rather slow . But I was really glad to go .

I was in bar harbor last summer. It seemed hard to find a place that wasn’t fancy, but we didn’t look to hard since we were just there for the day. We ate at a place called “ Geddys” I believe. It was very good but cost and arm and a leg. With that being said, seemed like everything up there was expensive lol. Have fun, Maine is an awesome state.

On rt3 between ellsworth and Acadia there was a greasy spoon looking joint called Maine Luai It was bbq and seafood. Wonderful food and affordable. Last summer when we were at the park, the place looked cleaned up and now called Acadia lobster house or something like that
We didn't stop cause we had reservations at an Irish pub in bangor that day.
Cooperstown ,was there today, the crowds are on the light side right now, but hearing that the weekends are almost impossible to go thru the village. As soon as schools close for summer, it will be pretty much the place to avoid until fall

Also heading for Maine on the 16th of this month. Will be staying in Kittery. Would love to fine some old Lobster trapper and work on the boat for a day. He would have to be old and have a slower pace. I will be 81 shortly. I am more of a doer than a looker. Can't wait.

Baah Haabah...is a tourist trap. The Tranny watching should be interesting anyways.

Hope you have a great time. I have not been up that way for years but I do recall Acadia state Park was awesome. The Maine coast is incredibly beautiful, you will enjoy seeing that. Lots of folks in the summer but that is to be expected. Have fun.
