Regulation boundaryMaine State Waters

Required licenses
Atlantic salmon are a critically endangered species, and therefore, it is unlawful to fish for them.
Additional information
It is unlawful to angle, take or possess any Atlantic salmon from all Maine waters (including coastal waters). Any salmon incidentally caught, must be released immediately, alive and uninjured. At no time should the Atlantic salmon be removed from the water. If an Atlantic salmon is incidentally captured, you must release it alive at once. The best way to do this is: Avoid removing the fish from the water, and release the fish as quickly as possible. If the hook can easily be removed, do so quickly and release the fish. If the hook cannot be easily removed, cut the line as close to the hook as possible and release the fish. For more information, visit NOAA Fisheries Service at Atlantic Salmon.

Fishing in Maine requires a valid state fishing license for anglers. Licenses include resident and non-resident, annual, short-term, and combination permits, available online or at licensed agents.

In Maine, no fishing license is required for anglers under 16. Residents 70 and older qualify for a discounted license. A few other exceptions worth knowing:

  • Free fishing days — most states designate 1–2 weekends a year where anyone can fish without a license

  • Tribal waters — tribal members fishing on tribal land operate under separate tribal regulations

  • Private ponds — landowners fishing their own water typically don't need a license

Non-residents usually pay more for a license than residents. Some species also require an extra stamp or endorsement on top of your base license.
