It appears that spring fishing will get an early start this year. Snowpack is down and spring temperatures are right around the corner. Planning of early spring fishing trips are in full swing. One of those trips is planning to head over to the Magalloway watershed in pursuit of big brook trout.

The Magalloway is the last bastion of heritage strain river run brook trout in New Hampshire. There are special regulations on the river. These regulations include single barless hooks on flies or lures and catch and release. These regulations ensure that New Hampshire will continue to have river run brook trout measured in pounds, not inches.
