Trout Fishing on the Northeast Avalon

Find this document useful?
​Please Join SAEN!
Ever wanted to grab that fly rod and have a few flicks on one of the many small streams and brooks on the Northeast Avalon? I think many of us have but have never really known where to start. Well we now have just the answer!

Robin Gamble, a SAEN Board member and avid fly fisher, has put together an amazing compendium called "Trout In and Around St. John's - A Brief, Inaccurate and Incomplete Summary". This valuable resource describes available trout species, habitat, equipment and more. It also includes a detailed description of over a dozen watersheds on the Northern Avalon. With almost 40 pages of valuable insights, maps and humor, I think every fly fisher will find this document useful. 

The map below shows the outline of the watersheds described by Robin. Click the map for a more detailed view.
