Fishing

Lunksoos is half a mile from the confluence of Wassataquoik (Wah sa' ta cook) Stream and the East Branch of the Penobscot River, where an August 2007 study by Midwest Biodiversity Institute found plentiful landlocked salmon and brook trout. the The East Branch of the Penobscot River where Lunksoos Camps is located, you can fish for landlocked salmon, and brook trout.

Spring time is great for landlocked salmon and trout, summer for bass and fall a combination of all three.  Bring a boat or borrow our canoe and we'll drop you off so you can drift down the river and enjoy a great day on the water.  Or simply cast from shore waiting for that familiar tug on the line during your retrieve.  We're located two miles north of Whetstone Falls and less than a mile from the Wassataquoik confluence with the East Branch of the Penobscot River.
