Designed by the Fisheries Division of the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, “The Maine Fishing Guide” is an online tool to assist anglers with locating Maine’s sportfish locations, and to give them ideas to plan their next outdoor fishing adventure.
This tool is unique among the states and makes Maine a leader in providing information to anglers in a unique, useable format.
The Maine Fishing Guide is configured on GoogleEarth software, which users may download onto their computer from the guide’s home page.

Governor Signs Legislation to Improve Air Quality in Maine
Governor John E. Baldacci held a State House ceremony to celebrate the signing of An Act to Improve Maine’s Air Quality and Reduce Regional Haze at Acadia National Park and Other Federally Designated Class Areas.
The legislation establishes incremental reductions in the sulfur content of all fuel oils sold in the State of Maine beginning in 2016. Final reductions will take place in 2018.
Regional health impact studies have suggested that Maine can save nearly $150 million in avoided health costs associated with the implementation of this program.
In addition, future visitors to Maine’s pristine federal parks and wilderness areas. Acadia National Park, Campobello International Park, and Moosehorn National Wildlife Wilderness Area - will be able to see improvements when visiting these areas.
