Think "smaller" when fishing the river right now - small tippets, small flies, but maybe you'll catch a big fish ...

Tall Timber was proud to host N.H. Fish & Game's "Becoming an Outdoors-Woman" program recently, as the participants learned the basics of fly fishing on the Connecticut River's Trophy Stretch with the help of experienced volunteers.

It was a beautiful weekend for them to experience the river and we hope this starts a lifelong joy of fly fishing for all of them.
