West River/ CT. River Brattleboro, VT Fishing Report

4.5 Rating based on 2 Reviews

Brattleboro Retreat Meadows

This is one of my favorite places to catch bass. I always catch at least one good fish every time I fish it.

The action lasts from late spring until fall for bass. The kicker is it is a great ice fishing spot come winter time.

There is a boat launch across from the Grafton Cheese shop. I have seen people launch bass boats but it is very shallow in places so a smaller boat is better.

It is the junction between the West River and the CT. River so many species of fish feed here. Blue Gill , Perch, Trout ,Large mouth and small mouth Bass even Crappie.

Well if you aren't sold on this location yet. I caught a small pike here and moments later my wife caught her first large mouth, a very big fish. I released both so go get'em. Check out the photos on my home page.
