Ed Reposa

I've been guiding for about 5 years and am Orvis Endorsed. I specialize in drift boat trips on the CT river for smallmouth bass and other species. There is no stress in my boat whatsoever. I love sharing with like-minded folks, no matter their level of experience. Fly fishing is for everyone.

Joe Forrestall

I've been guiding for 3 years now. Fly fishing is one of my passions I love to share with people through guiding. I care about being a steward for the environment and facilitating a great and safe time out on the water. Half day and full day options. I have gear for you to use. Beginners welcome.

Trout Fishing on the Battenkill

In partnership with Trico Unlimited, BrattleFly offers guided trout fishing on the Battenkill River — one of the most storied wild trout streams in the northeastern United States. The Vermont Battenkill holds wild brown trout and native brook trout in cold, clear water from Arlington to Manchester.

Trico Unlimited guides bring over 75 years of combined experience on these waters. Lead guide Brew Moscarello is a 2024 Orvis Guide of the Year finalist, Vermont Fish & Wildlife Certified Instructor, and New York State Licensed Guide with over 40 years on the Battenkill.
