Tom Roth had a 32-year law enforcement career including working as a summer game warden before retiring and then rejoining the workforce to run Maine’s Fraud Investigation Unit. Since 1995, he has penned a regional column in The Maine Sportsman and has had thousands of articles published in national magazines. In 2021, he published “A Sporting Year In Maine.” Tom now splits his time between a horse farm in Cumberland and the family home on Sebago Lake and guides anglers for the abundant lake trout and salmon there. He documents many of his adventures on his YouTube channel.
