Can anyone give some advise on any info. that would help me enjoy a week of fishing at Rangeley Lake? I will begin fishing on Aug.5th for a week on the water. I have fished it before 4 or 5 years ago during this same week in August and used frozen smelt trolling 30 ft. down with downriggers..had a blast!!! How's the fishing been this year? any help would be greatly appriciated..Thanks, Bruce.

Bruce,
You are doing the right thing for sure and you have had success in the past so you should be confident of catching some fish this August. I wouldn't hesitate to drop your bait even a little further, I caught a nice 18" trout last week @ 43 feet. Find the bait and stay on it.
See you out there,

Hey Shaun what's the good word? Jim will be there on the 7/29 and I'll be following him in on 8/5. I just got an email from him today! We are both chomping at the bit. How has it been going up there. I come here every day now almost to see if you post anything. I should probably check out your web site. See you soon Bob
