Season:

April 1-July 4: We will mostly be targeting trout. The best dry-fly fishing of the season usually starts in May and lasts through early June.

July 4-Sept. 15: It's bass season! While there are opportunities to target trout, I prefer to target river small mouth bass.

Sept. 15-Dec. 1: As the fall sets in and the mercury drops, we get back to trout fishing. There can be some great action as the waters start to rise back up from their low summer volume and high temperatures.

Species:

Trout, small mouth bass, carp

Region/Terrain:

Located in Saratoga Springs, we fish the southern Adirondacks to the Green Mountains of Vermont. The rivers are mostly small to mid-sized, with the Battenkill being our most famous.

Typical Weather:

In April, it is not uncommon to have snow on the ground still. It's best to be prepared for cool temperatures with an extra layer or two and a rain jacket. Waders are definitely needed.

By the time late May arrives the weather here starts to get great. Often times mornings near 50 and highs near 70 F. An extra fleece for the morning is usually all you'll need. You'll still want waders.

By mid July, we usually put the waders away until fall. If you've been here during track season, you know how great the weather is. Refreshing mornings and often pleasant daily highs, it's pretty rare that we go above 90 degrees or below 72 degrees this time of year.
