Covert Creek Outfitting – What’s New?

It’s already been one hell of a 2023 season in the Catskills! From rebranding our Outfit, to hosting numerous seminars and events, and spending time with all of our new and returning clients – Thank you! Nothing means more to my team and I than getting to spend time in the field and on the water with great people.

I wanted to take a minute and fill everyone in with what’s happening and what’s coming up this year! I’m excited to have rebranded our Outfit to ‘Covert Creek Outfitting, LLC’ – taking hints from the New England grouse Coverts and of course, our Catskill Mountain Creeks. We’ve got a great team of guides, a whole new line of Redington fly-fishing gear for all of our clients to use, and a line of wingshooting gear on the way! I’m proud to say we are partnered with AnyCreek for our booking management – this online booking tool will make your life and ours easier for booking all of your dates with us!

You can now book dates online with us here:

Our season is off to a great start! We are full swing in guiding fly fishing and summer training for our pointing dogs! Be sure to stay in the loop by following us on Instagram below!

As always, we can venture into the Catskills where American Fly-Fishing began! Visit both of our Partners by clicking their images below!

Our Future

The future plans for CCO are big! What you can expect in 2023…
– Custom embroidered apparel, hats, fishing, & hunting gear
– Stocking of gear available to make your time on the water & in the field more enjoyable
– A full line of wingshooting gear for client use – including double guns!
– Hosted & Collaborative ‘Sporting Weekends’ with our Endorsed Partners & more

Long term…
CCO is looking to add our own private Outfitter Camp in the Northern Catskill Mountains! Our goal is to accommodate both angler/hunter and their families, along with their four-legged hunting buddy right in the heart of the streams and coverts we love! Plans are just beginning, but we have a lot in store! Stay tuned for more to come!

Moving Forward

Continuing the 2023 season you can expect to see frequent posts here on the CCO Blog! We’ll keep you up to date with what we’re up to, let you know how the fishing is, and what’s happening as we get closer to our fall grouse and woodcock season!

We appreciate your support and sticking with us! We’re looking forward to spending time together on the water and in the field this season.
We know your calendar fills up fast – So does ours! Let’s get you set up for the best experience in the Catskills. We’re traditional, with a twist; Come and see what makes us different!
