I recently read a post on another forum which casually mentioned that Orvis posted a section of the Battenkill near Manchester.
Previously, I thought that most of the "Orvis Hating" stemmed from them being the biggest in the business, and they're involvement in selling private properties on trout streams. Personally, I felt this was offset by the money they contribute to conservation.
However, if it is true that Orvis has actually posted sections of the Battenkill, they will never see another dime of my money.
Caveat - I know they have been involved in habitat restoration on the Battenkill. I suppose I wouldn't hold it against them if they posted the land as a temporary measure while improving the stream.
