Green Mountain National Forest features some 350,000 acres of land, and 440 miles of rivers. Fly-fishing is great in these waters. Brook, Rainbow, and Brown Trout are just a few of the varieties that can be caught in these pristine rivers.

There are few fishing spots that are perfect for beginners, kids, and casual sport. Camp PLymoth State Park behind Echo Lake rents row boats for a classic fishing experience. West Hill Park, located in Ludlow, Vermont, has a large trout pond that offers easy fishing from the shore. People under 15 can fish without a license, but older teens and adults must purchase a day pass for $15. Passes are available at local sporting goods and general stores.
