Walloomsac River
|
The Walloomsac flows generally west through Bennington and North Bennington
before crossing the border into NY. The Walloomsac holds stocked, hold-over
and even some wild brookies, browns & rainbows. Several miles downstream in
NY, the Walloomsac joins the Hoosic in the vicinity of North Hoosick, NY.

Don't forget, several of the streams in our Southwestern corner of Vermont,
such as the Walloomsac, Hoosic, Batten Kill, 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.
