For anglers in and around Connecticut, broodstock Atlantic salmon fishing is one most reliable ways to catch a large fish in fresh water. For anglers who fish for sea-run Atlantic salmon in Canada or Europe, the broodstock fishery is a good way to practice presentation close to home and for a minimal investment. For anglers new to Atlantic salmon fishing, this fishery is a great way to learn the techniques used to catch Atlantic salmon around the world. Topics include: Locations of the fishery (Shetucket and Naugatuck Rivers), regulations equipment, identifying salmon lies and typical holding water, salmon behavior, fishing strategies, fishing in a rotation, fly selection, fighting, landing and the safe release of salmon
