2013 June 26 - Torsey Lake, Maine - Loon and Geese

We decided to try a new lake today, Torsey Lake in Kent's Hill, Maine.  We headed for an area someone had told us about that has a lot of tree stumps.  It was a difficult area to fish and was filled with lily pads which produced some bass but mostly weeds around our electric motor!

We left the lily pad area and fished along the shore as we headed back to the public landing. The fishing definitely picked up along that stretch and we must have caught at least 100 fish.

The highlight of this trip for me, was when we came upon a nesting Loon. We have only seen a loon nesting twice.  I zoomed in with my camera so as not to disturb her and got this shot.

We also saw a family of Geese swimming and walking along the shore.
