Our 2019 season opener on the Blackberry river will be Friday, April 26th, 3:00pm - dusk. The Blackberry is usually stocked twice by the last week of the month, so there should be no shortage of fish. The Blackberry can be an easy wade. Meet at the Furnace (pictured above) Click
HERE for directions and details.
4wt-6wt 8 to 9' rods are best on the Blackberry.
Don't forget to have your Connecticut Fishing License and Trout Stamp! |

If you thought you were going to get away without a middle section on this newsletter, well, here it is! Casting for Recovery's retreat this year is again in our backyard, at the Trinity Retreat Center on the Housatonic in W. Cornwall, and at Limestone Trout Club in Caanan. Follow the link up above to fill out a volunteer application if you haven't done so before. Contact a chapter officer if you want to volunteer. The date of the retreat this year is Sept 22nd.
Our next meeting is April 2nd (12 days before the General Fishing opening day) Details and directions for meetings and everything else can be found on our
website. Remember, DEEP begins stocking the Farmington, Naugatuck and Housatonic in March every year, weather permitting. Fly Fishing is permitted year round in TMA's around the state. Remember to have your CT Fishing License and Trout Stamp even if you aren't targeting Trout, when fishing a TMA. |

Join us during the week of Friday, June 7th to Thursday, June 13, on the Delaware River, in NY's Catskill Region! We'll be staying at the West Branch Angler resort, which has over three miles of private water on the Delaware. If you can't stay the entire week, just sign up for a couple of days, and get out there and get your River Monster! Large trout are available to fly-fishermen on the Delaware. Accomodations are very nice, there's an onsite restaurant and fly shop! Rod weights anywhere from 4-8wt are good for this river, if you don't feel like wading, guides and boats are available.
