A Million Miles Away on the Deerfield River with Brian Comfort

Our destination is the Deerfield River in western Massachusetts with Brian Comfort, owner of Deerfield Fly shop.  The Deerfield ranks among the best tailwaters in the Northeast.  With diverse hatches and water types, anglers can find great dry fly fishing and escape the crowds on this remote and scenic river. Brian shares what makes the Deerfield River so special, how to navigate the multiple dams and tailwaters that make up this system, major hatches, and how to target those big browns lurking in nearly every hole.  Bonus: Tarpon in the Virgin Islands, giant trout in New Zealand, and technical trout on Swift River, plus, was it a good idea to buy a fly shop during covid?    With host, Steve Haigh Be the first to know about new episodes.  Sign up at https://www.destinationanglerpodcast.com  Top Flies for the Deerfield River: @DestinationAnglerPodcast on Facebook and Instagram About Brian Comfort and the Deerfield Fly Shop Deerfield Fly Shop Book a trip:  413-397-3665 Facebook Instagram Please check out our Sponsors: Got Fishing - crafting world Class fly-fishing adventures specially designed to your level of experience and budget.   https://gotfishing.com/ | Facebook @GotFishingAdventures Instagram @GotFishing TroutRoutes - the #1 Trout Fishing app, helping you find new trout water so you spend less time on the road and more time fishing.  https://troutinsights.com/ | Facebook @troutinsights Instagram @TroutRoutes  Download the app here Adamsbuilt Fishing - THE trusted source for quality fly fishing gear, built to last at an affordable price.
