Hunting & Fishing

A Fantastic Fishing and Hunting Experience in the wilds of Moosehead Lake

Fishing

Seboomook Wilderness Campground is located right on the shores of the Moosehead Lake - where fishing enthusiasts regularly make the trek to pull bragworthy brook trout, salmon, and lake trout from its depths.

Launch your boat at our marina and spend the day on the lake, or stand on the dock and cast in the early morning with the kids. Either way, you are likely to get something on the end of your hook.

If you want alternatives to lake fishing, the world-class brook trout and salmon waters of the famed West Branch of Penobscot are within a 10-minute drive from the campground. In addition, there are countless smaller lakes and ponds in the same area that are considered trophy brook trout waters.

Hunting

In the fall, hunting opportunities abound in the region surrounding Seboomook Wilderness Campground. Although hunting is not allowed on the campground property, thousands of publicly and privately owned acres next to SWC are open to hunting. Seboomook Wilderness Campground makes an excellent location to base your Moose hunt, in WMD Zones 8, 4, and 9.

Whether you are a bear hunter, a bird hunter, deer hunter, or one of the lucky moose hunters, come back at the end of the day and relax at our comfortable and affordable cabins and campsites, with spectacular views and a wilderness experience that is true Maine.
