What types of fish are caught on VTCF trips?

The fishing in Vermont is diverse and provides us with the opportunity to chase many different species of fish.

As Vermonters, we’re especially passionate about the trout that inhabit our waters. We often target native brook trout, along with wild and stocked rainbow and brown trout.

Other species include smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, northern pike, chain pickerel, fall fish, Atlantic salmon, and lake trout. At different points of the year, many of these fish are easily targeted with a fly and very fun to pursue.

Let’s maximize your time on the water.

Your vacation and fishing time is precious and we ensure you are getting the most out of them.

1. A prime fishing location will be determined based on your lodging location, minimizing the time spent driving.

2. Guests in need of Vermont fishing licenses will purchase them in advance and all of the fly rods will be rigged up, awaiting your arrival.

3. This means that when we meet up, we’ll take a moment to get you geared up in waders and boots and you’ll be ready to hit the water!

4. For full day trips, lunch will be provided riverside. We’ll chat in advance about your preferences and dietary needs so you get a tasty meal to refuel and get back on the water.

Please review the trip preparation page and reach out if you have any questions.
