About Fishing at Huntington River

Huntington River is a public river in Chittenden County and Addison County, Vermont, managed by State of Vermont (public / navigable water). You can fish it on a Vermont fishing licence; bank access is at bridge crossings, VTFW access points and public parks. Vermont riverbeds are private property up to the ordinary high-water mark except on a few federally-declared-navigable reaches, so wading or bank fishing away from a public access point needs the landowner's permission. Public access confirmed via public-trust river.

A Vermont warmwater river or large brook — smallmouth and largemouth bass, chain pickerel, yellow perch and carp. Wade or paddle; access at VT F&W fishing access areas and bridge crossings.

It runs roughly 14 miles through the Champlain Valley region. Anglers here mostly fish for smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, chain pickerel, yellow perch; common carp are also on record. The nearest other mapped waters on PiscaMaps are Gillett Pond and Hollow Brook.

Access & Rules at Huntington River

Night fishing: Vermont allows night fishing on most waters, though some trout ponds and streams have seasonal or hours restrictions — check the current VT F&W fishing guide for this water.

Boats: Most Vermont rivers (the Winooski, White, Lamoille, Missisquoi and the Green Mountain trout streams) are waded or floated by canoe, kayak or drift boat; the Connecticut River takes larger boats in its lower, wider reaches.

Bank & bivvy camping: You can fish this river on a Vermont fishing licence; bank and wading access is at VT Fish & Wildlife fishing access areas, bridge crossings and public parks — check current signage for any water, as bank ownership and access rights vary by reach.

Tackle: Statewide bass limit is usually 2 (with a closed season in spring); trout limits vary widely and many streams are catch-and-release or artificial-lures-only; walleye, pike and panfish limits are more generous. Check the current VT F&W fishing regulations for this specific water.
