The Green Mountain state is home to some of the best fly fishing in the country, yet most traveling anglers concentrate their attention on a few of the more famous streams. In this complete guide to the best fly fishing streams and still waters in Vermont, Mike Valla shares detailed information on where to go, current fly patterns, and advice from local experts. Species covered include trout, landlocked salmon, and smallmouth bass (Lake Champlain and its tributaries offer world-class warmwater fly fishing opportunities).
Mike Valla was inducted into the Fly-Fishing Hall of Fame in 2024. He is the author of Fly Fishing Guide to New York State, The Founding Flies, Tying Catskill-Style Dry Flies, Tying and Fishing Bucktails and other Hair Wings, Tying the Founding Flies, The Classic Streamer Fly Box, and Favorite Flies for the Catskills. He is the recipient of the Poul Jorgensen Golden Hook Award and is often invited to speak about fly fishing in local, national, and international fly-fishing events and gatherings. He is a frequent contributor to American Fly Fishing magazine and has published articles in Fly Fisherman, Fly Tyer, and American Fly Fisher. He served on the Board of Directors at the Catskill Fly Fishing Center and Museum. Valla has been fly-fishing for well over 50 years. He lives in the town of Cambridge, New York, just a few miles from Vermont.
