The Deerfield River below Fife Brook Dam is a true success story. It is the all-too-rare river that fishes better today than it did 20 or even 10 years ago. This success is due to progressive fisheries management and the decommissioning of the Yankee Atomic Plant, which previously warmed the river by up to 15 degrees.
