About the narraguagus river


The Narraguagus River is a 50-mile-long river in eastern Maine, flowing from its source in the town of Deblois, to its mouth at Milbridge, on the coast. The river has a rich history, with evidence of fishing and trading by Native Americans dating back over 4,000 years. The river is a popular destination for fishing and hunting, with several dams and reservoirs supporting the thriving sport fishing industry. The dams on the river are primarily used for hydroelectric power, with the West Branch Dam generating power for the local community. However, there are concerns about the impact of the dams on the river's ecology and fish populations. Additionally, the river is used for agricultural purposes, with farmers using its water for irrigation and livestock. Overall, the Narraguagus River is a vital resource for the communities along its banks, serving as a source of power, recreation, and livelihood.
