Trout Pond Guidelines

Update for February 13th, 2025–The Trout Pond is now open for catch and keep two. The fishing community may now keep two rainbow trout starting 2/13/2025. Fishing on the pond is restricted to Wintergreen property owners and their guests; a WPOA fishing permit must be displayed.

Trout Pond is stocked with Rainbow Trout in a cooperative program with the WSC and the Wintergreen Property Owners Association.  Thanks to the WSC volunteers for feeding the fish. Updates will be posted here and in the WSC email newsletters. WSC membership is not required to sign up for our newsletters. Sign up for the free fishing newsletters here.

Two pond-side, hands-on classes for those new to Fly Fishing

or
• Thursday, October 6th, 9 to 11 am at Trout Pond - capacity 6

One pond-side, hands-on Non-Beginner Fly Fishing class led by Tim Hess and Al Simpson

Notes regarding these classes:
• Everyone is asked to bring their own fly fishing equipment to outdoor classes. Participants in the beginner's classes may not own equipment; we are asking beginners to try to borrow a friend’s rod if they don't have one. We have a few “loaner” rods and please make a note on the registration form if you need gear.
• These classes are being offered to WSC members only and are being taught by WSC members at no charge. Please refrain from inviting non-members to these classes.
• And, most importantly, thanks to John Tani, Bruce Henderson, Tim Hess, Al Simpson, and Mike Fisher for offering their talent, time, and patience to instruct our classes.
