Mass Bass Adventure 23 Update 1

Dear Parents,

Greetings from the Mass Bass Adventure. The crew arrived in Boston earlier today and made it to the campsite in time for some for some delicious burgers. Hopes are high with thoughts of angry smallmouth and hungry trout. 

Tomorrow, we kick off the fishing on the Housatonic River right by camp. The river has been low for the past few weeks, but recent rains have brought opportunities for morning trout and afternoon smallmouth. After two days of fishing by the campsite, the group will start a canoe float for pike and smallmouth. The boys are pumped to get a shot at some toothy fish. After our float, we will head to the coast in hopes of getting a chance at striped bass on the flats.

We are all looking forward to getting some lines wet and will keep you updated as the trip progresses. Future updates will be posted to the LFFE blog through the website. The link for the blog will be sent to you via email. If you have any questions, please let us know!

Respectfully,

Shane, Jacob, and Hunt

Lillard Fly Fishing Expeditions was started in 2010 as a graduate thesis for my Master's Degree in Environmental Conservation Education at NYU. The operating premise was simple - by coupling amazing wilderness fly fishing camps for teens with environmental education and service learning we can help inspire future generations of fly fishing conservationists. We have been growing our unique list of trips and experiences ever since.

When it comes to choosing a summer program for your teen the options are endless. For the teen who loves to fish, be outside, and has a strong sense of adventure we have made the choice easy. We are the leader in teen fly fishing adventures and are dedicated to providing the best backcountry fly fishing experience with opportunities for teens to engage in leadership training, community service, and backcountry camping.

Sincerely,

Will Lillard signature
