Now's the Time

Did we have a wet 3 months? All local rivers were at flood stage most of June, July and August.
The last time we had a soaking season was in 1986.
There were days, here and there, when the rivers would recede allowing anglers access to some high but fishable "Hot Spots". One of these is below the Fairfax Dam on the Lamoille River where a very happy and excited fly fisherman landed three brown trout, 21", 23" and 28". He used a cone-head Muddler, a fly that will sink deep in heavy water.
A few other large fish were reported but for the most part things were very slow. Even the side brooks swelled over their banks.
The deluge is over and the rivers are now perfect and ready to provide excellent fall fishing.
The Blue QWOD nymph, Irresistible, Stone fly nymph and streamers are but a few of the flies that will entice trout during this time of year.
I would like to apologize to those clients who booked our guide service and to whom we had to refund deposits due to the unsafe water conditions this summer. I hope that you will give us another chance to show you an enjoyable day on Vermont's beautiful rivers.
