Otter Creek
|
Flowing north from the town of Dorset, and eventually emptying in to Lake
Champlain, Otter Creek offers a little something for everyone. The upper
stretches contain some wild brookies and browns, while downstream, stocked
rainbows, browns and brooks can be found where conditions permit.

Don't forget, several of the streams in our Southwestern corner of Vermont,
such as the Walloomsac, Hoosic, Battenkill, Mettawee, and Poultney aren't bound
by state lines and there is often good fishing to be found on the "other" side
of the border, which explains why there are some non-VT-specific resources
and references listed above. More importantly, keep it legit and get yourself
properly licensed in whichever state your angling explorations take you before
you wet a line.
