About Beaverkill River

The Beaverkill River, a 44-mile tributary of the East Branch Delaware River in New York's Catskill Mountains, offers a historic and productive fly fishing experience for brown, rainbow, and brook trout. This renowned fishery features a variety of water types, from narrow, boulder-strewn pocket water in its upper reaches to wider sections with fast riffles and deeper pools, including notable areas like Jones Falls and the Junction Pool. Anglers can anticipate significant hatches of Blue Winged Olives, Grey Drakes, and Hendricksons, making it ideal for dry fly fishing, with terrestrials also effective in summer. Access is generally good, though private land exists in the upper sections, and special catch-and-release areas like Horse Brook Run and Horton's Pool are available.
