Saratoga Springs Fly Fishing is an Orvis Endorsed guide service offering guided fishing trips from the southern Adirondacks through southern Vermont, with a new location on the banks of the Battenkill River. Led by guide Ralph Yusavage, the service draws on more than a decade of guiding experience in Vermont, along with a deep personal connection to the region’s rivers. Trips are tailored to each guest’s experience and interests, whether learning the basics or refining advanced techniques.

Options include full-day and three-quarter-day float trips, half-day wade trips, and three-hour fly-fishing lessons. Float trips accommodate up to two anglers per boat, while walking trips and lessons offer flexible group arrangements. Seasonal fishing focuses on trout in spring, fall, and winter, and smallmouth bass during warmer summer months. Guests can explore dry-fly, nymph, streamer, and spey techniques while learning about local waters and fishing conditions. The business also offers lodging at a renovated lodge property available through its website and short-term rental platforms, giving visitors another way to enjoy the Battenkill area.
