About Rondout Creek
A smaller Catskills tributary above Rondout Reservoir with quality wild trout in its upper reaches. Lighter pressure than the Beaverkill or Delaware branches, with a quiet, intimate character. Caddis are heavy throughout the season and the upper tribs hold native brookies for those willing to walk.
Regulations
Standard NY trout regulations. Wild and stocked sections. Requires NYSDEC license.
