17 miles to the closest trout water I would call home. Anything farther away isn't what I would call home water. Once you drive past one of your fishing holes, the "home" part gets a little hard to justify in my mind.

Well I think for most of us it looks like we have to burn a fair bit of Gas to go fishing!
Interesting replies, thanks.
All the best.

In the summer, as a crow flies, I have to walk all of 20 feet to some really fine trout fishing on the Yellowstone River. Many evenings find me fishing there for the last 20-30 minutes of the day, until half past dark. That's my shortest distance to the river, but for variety I also fish another 100 miles (and more) up and down the Yellowstone.

Across the road from work. Across the road from home. I do spend more time up the river further.Some Atlantics below home ,but mostly fish Browns and Brookies are up where it narrows up a little. Of course a lot of them go past here, to get where I fish them

3 blocks to my favorite public pond (10 minutes on foot). 3 blocks in another direction to a second pond. Within 5 blocks of that pond is another 7 public ponds. Nearest river is about 15-20 minutes away by car, as is a large reservoir and 800+ acre lake.

Using/ stealing sagefisher's definition " Home is where...................," mine is about 1400 miles from my (other) home, and I have absolutely NO problem "suffering" ( includes, among many other points if interest , stopping in Austin MN for a SPAM sammich and in Story WY for............) those 1400 miles each year in late September or early October. My signature below is NOT just a passing thought,I MEAN IT.

My traditional "home" water is about 110 feet from my back door. I just wheel my kayak down in the evenings when the weather permits. If I want to go trout fishing it's anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours if I go to the mountains.

There is a small, warm water river about 15 minutes from me. I've fished it for over 40 years. It changes a bit with each, heavy rain. For trout the trip my home waters is about 2 hours.

40 minutes south to one section. From there, 30+ miles of trout river.
60 minutes in the opposite direction to another section. Can follow the river from there for hours and hours to its headwaters hundreds of miles north. Still haven't fished it all. Never will. Its Green and flows in two states. There's a huge lake in between (10 minutes out the door, in sight from my den)
