Fishing the Waters of Fairfield County with Jeff Yates
Jeff will lead us on a journey from the scenic native and wild trout headwater streams tumbling through the Fairfield County hills to more than 20 local stocked and holdover rivers and streams where public access makes for great days on the water. He'll also throw in one or two of his favorite saltwater spots for catching striped bass from shore. You'll leave knowing more about the history and opportunity throughout Fairfield County, 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.
