- The venue is delightful a remote fly fishing only pond along with a 1st class lodge with wonderful meals!
- Cost of the event is $250/person. Contact MadDog TU at: eventmdtu@gmail.com re this rate if you have concerns.
We'll be instructing about gear, entomology(bugs!), and proper fish handling. We'll also do an intro to knots and tying on your own flies and go course fly casting instructions.
All of this and fishing on Seyon Pond for native wild brook trout! Noyes Pond is perhaps the biggest draw at Seyon Lodge, offering Vermont's sole public fly fishing-only pond. The pond offers a remote setting that anglers appreciate as much for its quiet sense of solitude as for the breeding ground it creates for native square tail brook trout.
