Fishing the Farmington River – Connecticut’s Premiere Tailwater
There’s no river that is as alluring and inviting in Connecticut as the Farmington River. With more than 30 miles of trout water, including two trout management areas, the Farmington is heavily stocked and has a survivor strain of brown trout population that regularly exceed 20-inches in length. Jeff Yates will lead us on a journey from the scenic native and wild trout headwater streams tumbling through the Litchfield County hills to more than 20 access spots along the Farmington. You’ll leave knowing more about the history and opportunity offered by the river, but also take home some precise parking spots and access areas so you can explore on your own in the season ahead!
Jeff is a guide, author and the national Director of Engagement for Trout Unlimited and has held nearly every volunteer TU position on the board of his local Mianus Chapter and the Connecticut Council. He has been fishing the waters of Connecticut for more than 30 years and has been guiding for nearly two decades. His book, Fly Fishing Fairfield County: Secrets of Suburban Streams, details the great trout fishing available in the southwest corner of the state. Learn more at www.flyfishingct.com.
