Neversink River Description

The Neversink River (also called Neversink Creek in its upper course) is a tributary of the Delaware River, approximately 65 miles (105 km) long, in southeastern New York in the United States. The name of the river comes from an Algonquian language phrase meaning "mad river." Because of Theodore Gordon expertly matching dry fishing flies to actual insects in the 1890s, and due to the research of Edward Ringwood Hewitt from his property above the town of Neversink, the Neversink River is considered by many to be the birthplace of American dry fly fishing.[1]
