In the Northeastern USA, the Farmington River, a year round tailwater fishery, is a place of legend and anything but one dimensional. It is a testing ground for anglers willing to hone their skills against some of the most pressured and difficult wild trout in the country.

Guide ambassador and 2025 USA Guide of the Year Derrick Kirkpatrick, @ctfishguides, has fished here for over 30 years and knows exactly what it takes to succeed at a level above the rest in his approach. He consistently employs European tactics in his fishing both on and below the surface, which is why Guideline has been an exceptional fit in providing the right gear for outside the box trout fishing from long line mono nymphing to TLT.

His favorite rods are the LPX Nymph 10’8” 3wt, the NT11 Trout 994 and the NT11 Trout 905 paired with the respective models of the new Aura reel series.

We were lucky to spend a few afternoons during the 2025 season where we persevered through low water to find success by trying to be dynamic through the conditions. Derrick is a wealth of knowledge and we hope you find his commentary invaluable.
