Souhegan River - Wilton, NH Fishing Report

The "Horseshoe"

It was fairly hard to find decent river spots to fish with the water so low; I'm glad Mike knew about this section of the Souhegan and we were lucky enough to land 2 decent trout, which made a somewhat frustrating day totally worth it.

(To cut down on the amount of Hotspot clutter, I don't list Bluegill or Fallfish catches unless they are a potential record.)

The Dam Catch

  • Type of Fish: Brook Trout
  • Fish Length (Max): 6 inches
  • Bait Type: Worm Check Prices
  • Bait Details: Silver/Copper 2-way spinner hook.
  • Location Details: There is dam with a cement causeway that is easy enough to fish from but a little high off the water.
    I wouldn't mind trying the spot on the other side of the pool that is at water level.

    **The only fish we managed to hook here, before a massive thunderstorm rained us out, wasn't much larger than a fingerling, but most certainly a healthy little brook trout.
