CT Fish Guides is Derrick Kirkpatrick’s guide business, run from Riverton in the north west corner of Connecticut and now more than thirteen years old. Beyond its home river it arranges days across Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island, and states that it holds connections on rivers throughout the Northeast. The operation works lakes, open water and hard water as well as moving water, booking ice fishing through the cold months. Instruction is sold as a product in its own right, delivered remotely through virtual learning sessions as well as on the bank, and a related fly shop trading as Farmington Flies sits alongside the guide business.
