Wyman Lake was formed in 1930 by a 150 foot dam on
the Kennebec River and impounds water for approximately
15 miles. Power generation and log driving have been
the main use of the impoundment. Department concern
for a fishery at Wyman lake has not been a high
priority until recently. This lake has had little
fishin~ pressure in the past due to the log drives and
the storage of pulpwood in the lake itself. Since the
elimination of the drive in 1978, fishing pressure has
increased .
