Whether it&#8217;s the spawning urge or the drive to put on some extra winter insulation, these fish are operating under new compulsions, and none of them is polite. The successful fisherman&#8217;s methods need to change as well.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vtliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/mikefishes.jpg\" alt=\"mikefishes\" width=\"114\" height=\"144\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-10327\" \/>The fish aren&#8217;t going to be found in the summer evening tail waters: they&#8217;re going to be back in the obvious places, pocket water with good cover nearby, fast-running currents close to beds of pea-size spawning gravel. The shorter daylight hours and the lower water temperatures mean that you can legitimately abandon mid-day obligations and find action with trout that aren&#8217;t experiencing much angling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re fly fishing, grasshopper imitations and easily managed attractor dry flies will get noticed; if you&#8217;re carrying a spinning rod, cast very small spinners upstream, letting them tumble back down while controlling the slack &#8211; retrieve the lure just a tad faster than the current.<\/p>\n<p>If the dry weather continues, the low water conditions will call for more stealth; a few days of rain will make things a whole lot easier.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.vtliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/10\/trout.gif\" alt=\"trout\" width=\"144\" height=\"60\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-10328\" \/>Excellent opportunities can be found in all the Vermont brooks and rivers that held fish in the spring. Some of the best bets: Forget the Battenkill near Manchester in the south-west &#8211; the nearby Mettowee holds less difficult fish that are just as large. In northwest Vermont, the Lamoille and the Mad rivers are worth checking out. Central and north-central, the White River and its tributaries; in the Northeast Kingdom, the Clyde, Moose and Passumpsic rivers hold good populations of eager brookies and browns.<\/p>\n<p>The Vermont fishing season ends October 26.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t neglect your shotgun &#8211; earlier in the day, while waiting for the water to warm, cruise the swampy alder thickets and abandoned apple orchards for ruffed grouse and woodcock. Why not make a day of it?
