Speaker: Doug Lyons
Doug began fly fishing in his native state Massachusetts at the age of twelve. Finding the stocked trout of the Bay State somewhat lacking, Doug convinced his non-angling father to take a trip to the Battenkill; which happened in the fall of 1977. Despite a fishless weekend Doug immediately fell in love with the river. During this time Doug was also introduced to the value of habitat restoration by Fran Smith and Mac McKenna at the Quashnet.

Doug is currently a board member of the Battenkill Watershed Alliance and is part of a team helping to guide the activities of the Battenkill Home Rivers Initiative, which he helped launch. He is also a past Vice President and President of the Southwestern Vermont Chapter of Trout Unlimited.
Doug's work has appeared om the Orvis Fly-Fishing Blog, Manchester Journal and UpCountry
Doug, his wife Deanna, and their dog Roscoe split their time between Maynard, MA and their camp in Shushan, NY; a mile from the popular Spring Hole.
