Did you know that American dry fly fishing was born just 90 miles from Manhattan in New York’s Sullivan Catskills? Theodore Gordon is considered the Father of American Dry Fly Fishing, having discovered and developed new ways and fly patterns to attract trout during the late 19th century. If you want to catch Brown, Rainbow, or Brook Trout, you’ll find the waters here perfect for casting year-round; remember that fishing from October 16 to March 31 is catch and release only with artificial lures.
