Float Trips Our specialty is ‘float fishing’ from aboard a drift boat that provides the angler(s) with access to unwadeable water. While seated comfortably upon padded swivel seats the angler is brought to within easy casting distance of formerly unreachachable lies, often the home of large trout or salmon. With the increased fishing pressure witnessed along the shore of most rivers a float trip aboard Osprey I or Osprey II can transport the angler far from the crowds and into another world. Ospreys I & II are Western style drift boats designed to carry a maximum of two anglers in comfort. Osprey II is the larger of the two dorys with knee braces both in the bow and stern and is normally used for normal to higher water levels. Osprey I is the smaller of the two and has a knee brace only in the bow and is used for either a single fisherman or under low water conditions. From each of these boats the angler can cast safely from a standing position should they choose while the guests methodically cover the choicest of lies in comfort. Last but not least, the Ospreys provide the angler with the ability to rapidly and effortlessly move from unproductive water to a spot with actively working fish in a heartbeat.  Wade Trips   Whether due to water/weather conditions or by angler request we also offer ‘wade trips'. To many a fly fisherman there is no finer way to enjoy the sport than standing thigh deep in a river being serenaded by sounds only a river can make. The source of the Connecticut River is a system of four lakes with magnificent stretches of river between them. At key times of the year these can provide superb fishing and a host of memories to warm your heart during the long winter months. Anglers should be prepared for wading moss and algae covered rocks in moderate to fast water. To insure angler safety and comfort in the swift moving water we highly reccommend a minimum of felt soled waders. Anglers should be prepared to sterilize their felt soled waders after use as described on the 'Current News' page to eliminate the spread of Didymo. . Single Day Trips After meeting the guide at a prearranged spot and time the guest will be treated to a full day of matching wits with wild trout or salmon. Trips are tailored to the wishes and safety of the client and ,with more than a dozen different floats, the novice or expert seeking to learn or hone their skills will find these two rivers make an excellent ‘classroom’. With the rivers bordered by majestic evergreens and/or flood plain forests sightings of wildlife are common. Deer, otter, eagles, osprey and a host of other wildlife make this habitat their home. The chance but frequent sighting of a moose or bear swimming the river adds an extra dimension to an already enjoyable trip.
