Vermont Trout Ponds focuses on twenty of Peter Shea's favorite Vermont lakes and ponds, illustrating each of these water bodies with a map -- and in most cases a depth chart and GPS coordinates. Sharing information, comments, and the occasional angling tale that spans his nearly fifty years of chasing Vermont trout, the author transports the reader to twenty varied destinations. From places that are ideal to bring the family and young children, to the most remote trout fishing to be had in the Green Mountains, the angler will enjoy Shea's personal and informative take on these fishing holes, and have a laugh or two along the way.
An angler since childhood and author of Long Trail Trout (Headwater Books) Peter Shea has had a lifelong love affair with his sport. When not traveling the state in pursuit of trout, he lives in Burlington, Vermont.
What others are saying about Long Trail Trout, Shea's previous work: "This is a masterful work crafted by a man who truly knows the world of trout fishing and shouldn't be missed by anyone who's chased those elusive beasts and dreamed of hiking to the mountain ponds of the Northwest or those secret spots in Vermont. Shea's puckish sense of humor adds just the right flavor... I'd love to accompany him on one of his treks, but reading about them will suffice as next-best.. As fine a collection of fish-tales as you'd want."
