Welcome to the next generation of Lee's Fishing Page. 

Over the years I have been playing around with different approaches to this web site.  I think now I have found the best form to build and maintain this site for you the users of this site.  The site is built with Geeklog and many of the Plugins that can be had for this Content Management System.  To the left you will see a flash photo slide show or movie that will change from time to time and is a feature all users can use in their stories.   To see the features of the site click Here.  Also go to "Site How To's" under "Main Menu" to find useful information on how to do things on the site, this feature will be expanded more as time goes by.

I encourage all visitors to register IT IS FREE and the e-mail address is used only to send an initial password.  Registered users get to use all the features of the site.

Please enjoy the site.

Removal of the Halifax Dam in Winslow

General News

After many days ,weeks , months and years of debate the dam is finally breached.

 I have to say this brings a little empty spot to my heart even thought it is best for the fish. I grew up just down the road from there and I used to fish under the dam with all my childhood freinds. I even caught a 4 1/2 pound small mouth on my fly rod there.  Sad to see come down but at the same time it will be better for the fishing in the long run. Dave V
