High Falls Gorge Farm

 

We are in the planning stages at this time for building two cabin rentals along the Chateaugay River in Franklin County, New York. Here you will be able to plan your day trips into the Adirondacks and surrounding areas including the St. Lawrence River and Lake Champlain regions. You will also be able to venture into CANADA which is a short six miles away.

COME FISH WITH US:

Fishing the Chateaugay -  the upper section of the Chateaugay River, from the Forge Dam to High Falls, is stocked with brook trout, rainbow trout, and two-year-old brown trout. The river also holds wild brookies and browns. By accessing the river at Forge Dam, anglers will find good “pocket water” along the one-mile stretch down to County Route 24. The three mile section from CR 24 down stream to Pulp Mill Road has limited access but good puplic fishing rights. This is a wild and challenging section of  river that holds a combination of stocked and wild fish. The lower section of the Chateaugay River from High Falls to the Canadian border, has two popular access points. One is at Sam Cook Road near the Canadian border. Fishing is good here particularly where the Marble River enters. The second popular spot is from the Route 11 bridge in Chateaugay Once anglers maneuver a steep descent to the river, they will find a mile and a half of heavily stocked water upstream to High Falls. Stockings include two-year-old browns. Plenty of wild browns fin this stretch of river, too.

Fishing Chateaugay Lake – Upper Chateaugay Lake contains both cold-water and warm-water species. Annual stockings consist of 9,000 lake trout and 4,500 rainbow trout. You will also find northern pike, small mouth bass and yellow perch in the lake. Access is by a DEC launch in the Narrows which provides access to both the Upper and Lower lakes.

Other area  bodies of water to visit a short driving distance away are - North Branch Great Chazy River, Marble River, Chazy Lake, St.Lawrence River, St. Regis River, East Branch St. Regis River, Little Salmon River, Trout River, Little Trout River, Salmon River, Mt. View Lake and Indian Lake. As you can see there is plenty of water to fish for both cold water and warm water species that are nearby and accesible.
