Learn the art of Vermont fishing and cast a few lines, without leaving the Resort

The Essex is the perfect venue for both novice and experienced Vermont fishing trips.

Schedule an outing with the experts at Green Mountain Troutfitters and you can wake up, head off to the waters of the Champlain Valley, and learn from the pros. Tie your own flies, learn the ins and outs of ethical angling, and try on gear for an afternoon with Mother Nature. All fly fishing necessities are provided for class participants, including the use of a fly rod outfit, waders, boots, terminal tackle, flies, and a Vermont fishing license.
