Hallye Anderson

Operator since 2021
Our professional angler, Glenn Richardson, grew up in Northern Maine on the Kennebec River, learning to fish the streams and river any chance he had, catching all trout and salmon species, bass, pickerel and perch. In his teen years he moved to Southern Maine, and with so many options to fish, found a love for the Sebago Lakes region. Since moving to Southern Maine, he has spent all his time learning everything related to the local waters, including the best times and places to fish. Fly and spin fishing are both passions of Glenn's that he is constantly working to improve his skills at. He has worked at the local fishing shop, “The Tackle Shop”, and has learned all the best tackle and equipment to use for each fishing situation. This charter business is a dream of Glenn's, and he can't wait to fish with you!
