Lovin' Leapin' Landlocks






Landlocked Salmon are a species worth spending some time chasing on the river. Genetically the same as Atlantic Salmon, they are just separated from the ocean and 'landlocked' to various streams and lake systems in the Northeast.

Fall is one of the best times to go after them, and spending a little time at some of my favorite places in Maine chasing Brookies and Landlocks is something I look forward to every September. After the Gaspe, more time on the river was just icing on the cake. The air is crisp, leaves are changing, and there's always a good chance you'll share the river with a moose or two, and of course, there's the leaping salmon on dry flies.
