Dave Flynn, right, of Lyman and Leo Lemay of Sabattus jig for brook trout Thursday on Lower Range Pond in Poland. “We are waiting for the sun to come out and for the fish to start biting,” said Flynn. The two good friends have been fishing and hunting together for many years. “We may not catch many fish, but we have the comradery,” said Lemay. “We fished yesterday, today and probably tomorrow,” Flynn, 80, said. “My wife loves this time of year because I am always gone.” Daryn Slover/Sun Journal

Three brook trout caught Thursday by Dave Flynn and Leo Lemay sit on the ice on Lower Range Pond in Poland. The fish were caught when the sun was out. Once the clouds rolled in, the fish stopped biting, said Lemay, of Sabattus. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal
