  Our records carry no access rule either way. Scotland Bridge Boat Ramp gives a made launch, 0.9 miles off. Part of this sits inside or beside Kittery Water District Lands, so read the notices. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving.
