Synopsis

The Green Mountain state is home to some of the best fly fishing in the country, yet most traveling anglers concentrate their attention on a few of the more famous streams. In this complete guide to the best fly fishing streams and still waters in Vermont, Mike Valla shares detailed information on where to go, current fly patterns, and advice from local experts. Species covered include trout, landlocked salmon, and smallmouth bass (Lake Champlain and its tributaries offer world-class warmwater fly fishing opportunities).
