Upper Connecticut River (Northern New Hampshire)
Location: Northern New Hampshire is a 4½-hour drive from Boston or Portland, Maine, and 3½ hours from Manchester, NH, the closest airport.
.....
The Upper Connecticut has three distinctly different stretches. From below Second Lake, the river is small, with 60 cfs the common flow. This section is home to
brook trout and wild landlocked salmon. Slightly stained with tannins, this freestone stretch features a cascading waterfall (“Falls in the River”) along with riffles, pools, and a wonderful pond area where Dry Brook enters. Small brook trout and small salmon are in the river year-round, but in the spring (early May), large landlocks come into the mouth of the river from First Lake to feed on spring-spawning baitfish. In the fall, lake salmon return to the river to spawn, providing another chance to catch salmon 15 to 20 inches. From the dam to the bridge on Magalloway Road, regulations are fly-fishing-only, catch-and-release. From the bridge to Green’s Point on First Lake, fly-fishing-only, two salmon per day, 15 inches minimum; for trout, 5 fish or 5 pounds; and for lake trout, 2 fish 18 inches or greater.
