ABOUT BOB ROMANO
Bob Romano and his wife, Trish, have owned a cabin in western Maine’s Rangeley Lakes Region for nearly forty years. Sometimes referred to as "The Land of Fishing Legends," it is a region of the country where moose outnumber the residents and native brook trout share the rivers with landlocked salmon.
As entertaining as he is informative, Bob will cover where and when to fish, what flies to cast, and a few proven techniques. With over 100 photos in his program, Bob will describe how western Maine remains a region within driving distance where a sixteen-inch native brook trout is not unusual and an angler can still cast a fly, with only moose, beaver, and otter for company.
Bob’s books will be available for sale after the program. His most recent novel, RETURN TO RANGELEY, was released in January 2025. Published in 2023, RIVER FLOWERS, is his collection of short stories about wild fish, the places they’re found, and the people who seek them out.
His essays and short stories have appeared in various anthologies, including Christmas in the Wild, Fresh Fiction for Fresh Water Fishing, and Wildbranch: An Anthology of Nature, Environmental, and Place-Based Writing.
His articles have also appeared in The Drake and Fly Culture Magazines. He is also a frequent contributor to Midcurrent, the online fly-fishing magazine as well as Maine Boats, Homes & Harbors Magazine and The Journal, a literary magazine serving eastern Pennsylvania and northwest New Jersey. Bob also writes a monthly column for Northwoods Sporting Journal while doing his best to keep up with his blog http://forgottentrout.wordpress.com
