About Nelson’s Guide Service
Welcome—I’m Shawn Nelson, a Registered Maine Guide with a lifelong connection to Sebago Lake and the waters that surround it. Fishing has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and guiding gives me the chance to share that with others.
Every trip is different. Some days the fish are steady, other days they make us work for it—that’s part of the adventure. What I can promise is a prepared boat, quality gear, and the know-how that comes from years on these waters. Whether you’re hoping to learn the ropes, spend a relaxing day on the lake, or sharpen your skills, I’ll shape the trip around you.
For me, guiding isn’t just about catching fish. It’s about enjoying time on the water, watching the sun climb over the mountains, and sharing the kind of stories that only come with a day outside. If you leave with a few fish and a smile, that’s a great day in my book.
