Fishing The Upper Androscoggin River In Western Maine

August 20, 2008

This latest video was filmed and edited by Carter Davidson and Gray Ghost Productions. The Upper Androscoggin River, as listed and promoted by the Upper Andro Anglers Alliance, runs from the Maine and New Hampshire state border near Shelburne, New Hampshire down to around Rumford, Maine. It flows through my hometown of Bethel, Maine.

I grew up on this river, noted for being one of the 10 most polluted rivers in the United States. The efforts of many have returned the river to a point that it has become one of Maine’s destination fisheries. As a matter of fact a new state record rainbow trout was taken by Steve Day from this section of the river shown in the video.

I hope you enjoy it.
