Photos: Stocking Salmon in Downeast Maine

As people who read this site may know, I am a huge fan of the work being done by the Downeast Salmon Federation. I wrote in a prior post, the efforts being undertaken by the DSF have restored my hope that we might bring Atlantic salmon back to my home state of Maine. Recently, Dwayne and Kyle at DSF shared some photos with me from their recent stocking efforts. In looking at them, I wish I had been there with them. I grew up stocking trout in the Catskills on an annual basis, and love the work of getting out into a river and releasing fish.

Here’s my prior article about DSF’s work.

Enjoy the photos!
