Simply known as “The Branch,” this tributary of the Boquet River winds its way through the town of Elizabethtown, and offers good access for anglers in town.

Getting there

Access is from Footbridge Park in Elizabethtown.

Fishing

The stream has its beginnings on Hurricane Mountain, and joins the main stem of the Boquet in Elizabethtown. Regularly stocked by both the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and the Essex County Fish Hatchery, The Branch is home to brook trout.
