When you think of fly fishing, it is likely that you also think of Vermont. With thousands of miles of rivers and hundreds of lakes and ponds our fisheries are abundant with cold water and warm water fish species. Add to that numerous guide services, instructors, outfitters, shops and comfortable lodging and you can plan for a fun filled fishing vacation.
