Batten Kill

I mean, there are...

I can catch a bigger fish in the Battenkill on the right day than I can in the Delaware.

But there are nowhere near as many of them.

The population density is not high in that river.

So fish aren't used to seeing people as much.

I mean, it's not.

The Battenkill doesn't get a ton of fishing pressure.

You can go and have... pool or two to yourself really you want oh yeah it's not there's not a lot of fishing pressure on it

It was snow flurry and thaw and chill sunlight.

Here the Battenkill River flowed swift and dark down from the green mountains and crusted icily near its banks and past the village, then flowed swift and dark away.

And where the snow had melted, the soil glistened and was rich and black.

Farmhouses gleamed white and And where the furrow began, the shallow furrow that deepened and roughened and slowly rose up the mountainside and became the gorge that cut across the face of Mount Equinox.
