Description

Experience the Premier Fly Fishing Destination for Landlocked Salmon With stunning sunsets and relentless caddis hatches, Big Eddy on the Penobscot River in Maine stands as one of the best landlocked salmon fisheries in the world. Tumbling through the Class V rapid The Cribworks, the water settles, providing respite in an oxygen and food rich pool.

Consistent, cold water flows hold brooktrout and landlocked salmon all summer long.
