Fishing Techniques

• For Brook trout

  Fish upstream, casting into pools and runs, allowing your bait or lure to drift naturally with the current for best results.

• For Smallmouth bass

  Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.

• For Striped bass

  Match the hatch! Pay attention to what the stripers are feeding on and select lures or baits that mimic the size and color of the local forage.
