Levenseller Pond. It’s a put and take so impossible to spot burn it. Limit is 2 Brookies, bring a kid if you can.

I was up that way 2 weeks ago. Hardly a skim on Sheepscot or St. George. St. George used to be amazing ice fishing for me but the last 5 years has been horrible. Lots of good fishing in your area, just a matter ice the ice.

Toddy Pond in Orrington is good as well and close enough drive for you.

Really? Haven't hit Sheepscot in awhile but family has a camp on St George and usually do pretty well there in the last couple years

I used to go every other Saturday or so and would have about 5-10 brookies by 10a. About 5 years ago I couldn't buy a single fish, tried it a half dozen times since with the same results. Tried open water fishing and caught more bass than I could shake a stick at.

Mind you, I'm only out there or anywhere else to catch trout and salmon.

I caught over 20 18”+ salmon there last year through the ice, biggest one at 25”. Many people consider it slow but it’s only a matter of location and time of day.

Im jealous, it used to be my favorite place. I'll have to make the trip there again this year I guess
