He’ll also discuss an ongoing effort to make Maine’s fishing regulations more protective of brook trout.
The potluck dinner will start at 5:30 p.m. at the clubhouse on Old Skiway Road in Oquossoc. The public is welcome to attend the dinners and educational programs. Fore information, visit rangeleyoutdoors.com
