Long Hill (Guide)

Long Hill on the Housatonic River delivers good fishing for striped bass, white perch, and catfish from the shores or small boats with tidal flows aiding near the river structure. Public boat ramps at Long Hill and the Shelton area provide easy launches for river trips. Beaches along Long Hill and the Housatonic River parks offer grassy and sandy spots for family picnics and light shore casting with river views.
