Newell Brook is a public river in Androscoggin County and Cumberland County, Maine, managed by State of Maine (public / navigable water). You can fish it on a Maine fishing licence; bank access is at bridge crossings, MEIFW access points and public parks. Maine riverbeds are private property up to the ordinary high-water mark except on a few federally-declared-navigable reaches, so wading or bank fishing away from a public access point needs the landowner's permission. Public access confirmed via public-trust river.
A Maine warmwater river or large stream — smallmouth and largemouth bass, chain pickerel and yellow perch. Access at Maine GeoLibrary-listed boat launches and bridge crossings.
It runs roughly 9 miles through the Central Maine region. Anglers here mostly fish for smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, chain pickerel, yellow perch. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Meadow Brook and Runaround Pond.

Night fishing: Many Maine waters close to fishing from one hour after sunset to one hour before sunrise unless otherwise posted — always check the current Maine IF&W open water and ice fishing regulations for this specific water.
Boats: Most Maine rivers (the Dead, Machias, Union and the North Woods trout streams) are waded or floated by canoe, kayak or drift boat; the Kennebec, Penobscot and Androscoggin take larger boats in their lower, wider reaches.
Bank & bivvy camping: You can fish this river on a Maine fishing licence; bank and wading access is at Maine GeoLibrary-listed boat launches, bridge crossings and public parks — check current signage for any water, as bank ownership and access rights vary by reach.
Tackle: Maine's fishing regulations are highly water-specific — general law sets a 5-trout/salmon combined limit and a 25-bass limit on most waters, but hundreds of lakes and rivers carry special rules (fly-fishing-only, artificial lures only, reduced limits). Always check the current Maine IF&W law book for this specific water.
