Fishing News, Reports, & Events
The Wintergreen Sporting Club fishing group is for all who enjoy fly, spin, or bait casting or want to learn how. The regular informal get-togethers (called fishing conclaves) at local restaurants and Wintergreen homes are for fishing men and women to discuss anything fishing-related. There are also formal programs on trout and bass fishing, lessons on fly fishing, and a Spring and Fall bass fishing tournament. The club's fishing group has improved the habitat of the ponds by submerging discarded Christmas trees in the ponds during the Spring of the year. Working with the Wintergreen Property Owners Association, the WSC coordinated fundraising to purchase and install aerators in the trout pond. The fishing group also manages the annual late winter/early spring rainbow trout stocking program with WPOA, and in 2021, the club started a late fall stocking of the trout pond.
We are going forward with plans to stock the trout pond again this year if the fishing community again through as they have done in past years.
The Trout Pond limit has been removed, keep all you catch. Fishing on the pond is restricted to Wintergreen property owners and their guests; a WPOA fishing permit must be displayed.
Updates on the rules 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.
