About this Book

Connecticut hosts some of the finest and least-know fishing opportunities in the eastern U.S. From the legendary Housatonic River and its tributaries, to the Wild and Scenic Farmington River, to the Naugatuck, Hammonasset, Salmon, Shetucket, Willimantic and beyond, Ron Merly's years of experience will get you to new holes, hatches, and fish.

All told, over 350 rivers, brooks, lakes, and ponds are covered, along with detailed maps and hub city information.

Beyond the fishing, Merly covers the pressing issues facing Connecticut's fisheries, including invasive species and funding issues facing the state's trout stocking. This is the only flyfishing-specific guide on the market for Connecticut.
