“Reels and River II”
|
 |
The St. Croix River is a scenic waterway that runs along the border of Maine and New Brunswick, Canada. We will start in the small border town of Vanceboro, Maine and take out at Loon Bay approximately 20 miles down river. Throughout the trip we will be paddling through many rips (small rapids) where we will hone our paddling skills. On the second day, we will be ready for Little Falls–an easy class II whitewater drop that is fun for both novice and experienced paddlers. From Little Falls, the river continues through many sets of small rapids and meanders through beautiful scenery where you are likely to see bald eagles, osprey or even a moose.  Travel will be paced to allow for plenty of fishing opportunities—spin casting and fly fishing are both welcomed. Smallmouth bass, perch, pickerel and brook trout are among the species you’ll find here. You will need to purchase a State of Maine fishing license and provide you own gear and artificial bait. For more information on purchasing a State of Maine fishing license, please check out the following website: http://www.maine.gov/ifw/licreg/index.htm Students will have the opportunity to participate in a service project to benefit and preserve this international scenic waterway. Photo identification and a birth cerificate or passport are required for this trip. Nova leaders and participants are required to check in with U.S. Customs before embarking on this trip.
