Look for the town of Wilmington to offer shuttle service at a minimal cost every other weekend throughout the 2016 season.

2016 Shuttle Schedule:

July 3, 17, 31August 14, 28

September 11, 25

WILMINGTON AREA MAP


It’s the diversity of the river that allures many anglers to explore the West Branch of the Ausable. What stands out the most about the West Branch is the large amount of pocket water. Adirondack fishermen and women will tell you that’s where the best trout live.

The river carries a vast amount of oxygen from water tumbling over the

rocks and boulders, which provide plenty of hiding places, food, and resting spots. The oxygen and shade from the tree cover help the survival of the fish during the warmer months. The river also harbors slower sections that are deep with undercut banks just waiting for your fly to drop in.
