It was awesome to have Brandon back in camp! 🙂 We always enjoy hanging out with him when he gets here.  Brandon had a lot of action. The first day, does were like fleas around him. Then the second day, he had turkeys and a doe but no horns or bears showed up for him. Fifield Outfitters went up and sat in a stand just to see what activity was going on. We filmed a mama bear with her cubs on Day 1 and an 8pt. ten yards from the stand on Day 2. You tell us these animals aren’t smart. They know who to come by and who not to come by. It’s nature’s way of survival. Check out below two videos of Ryan’s recaps of the first two days of bow season.

Ryan Cert. August 2016

Ryan August 2016

A year ago, while just starting Fifield Outfitters, LLC, Ryan decided he also wanted to find a way to give back and serve his community and other surrounding neighborhoods using his area of expertise and skills. Therefore, he decided to set a goal to become a New York State Certified Hunter Education Instructor. He was recently notified that he earned this certification! He’s had the pleasure of meeting, learning from, and working with several long time dedicated instructors such as Mr. Richard DuMond, who has put in 50 plus years of commitment towards Hunter Education. What a lot of people don’t realize, is all of these instructors teaching the gun, bow, and trapping courses VOLUNTEER their time while educating citizens including youth on ethics, safety, and becoming responsible hunters. Ryan believes this is time well spent because he feels he can make a difference in ensuring that the sport he loves carries on for generations to come. 🙂

Saltwater Rods Swapped For Fly Rods

On Saturday, June 25th, Fifield Outfitters had guests Jimmy and Wade join them for a drift boat trip on the Delaware River. These two men are avid fishermen who swapped their saltwater poles for their fly rods for this float trip. The trout activity was better early in the morning and dwindled off as the day progressed. Two big browns broke off first thing using dry flies (Sulphurs). As the day went on, a switch was made to nymphs, which produced a few strikes but no takers. Wade and Jimmy had Ryan in tears with their commentary of the characters they encountered during this adventure.  Ryan is looking forward to taking these guys earlier in the spring next year on another exciting float down the mighty Delaware.

June Drift Boat Trip with Father & Son

Posted by Ryan Fifield | Posted in Fishing Reports | Posted on 07-06-2016

Al Sr.Al Jr.

Fifield Outfitters had guests Al Sr. and Al Jr. join them for a fly fishing drift boat trip. Having Al Sr. on board was priceless because he knows the Delaware River and its branches probably better than anybody that has ever fished it. He’s been fishing this river and its tributaries for over 60 years.  Therefore, even though Ryan was the guide, he learned an immense amount from this veteran angler that has expertise in this particular river system. Al’s son, Al Jr., we’d like to thank for his dedication and bravery as a full time firefighter.

The eight hour trip seemed only like an hour with all the laughs that were shared as the entire day was filled with good humor and comradery.  Brown and rainbow trout were observed sipping an abundance of different species of flies. Specifically, March Browns, Caddis, and Olives kept the trout active throughout the day.  Opportunity to catch some nice browns and rainbows was there, but unfortunately no decent ones were landed. We look forward to having these two guys back next year for another day filled with fish and laughter!

Chris Perseveres Despite Mother Nature’s Wrath

Chris 2016

Mother Nature sure wreaked havoc on 2016 opening day of turkey season in the Catskill Mountains. On this chilly, wet, May 1st, Fifield Outfitter’s guest, Chris, was affixed with determination to bag a bird. Soaked clothes and all, he put in a long, hard day all the way up to the last minute of legal hunting hours. He displayed true dedication to the sport of turkey hunting as he didn’t quit as the weather got worse. Only a lone hen was observed, but big Tom and his brother, Jake, will surely come out to play when the weather improves. On a side note, a lot of healthy deer were seen during this hunt.
