Trent Hill Bridge Access

Trent Hill Bridge Fishing Access Site offers plentiful public parking with a broad concrete pad on the north side of the bridge, making gear access convenient.

A well-beaten, moderate-gradient path leads from the parking area down to the Smith River, which features rocky terrain and active current suitable for wading anglers.

The access point is easily located by following Route 57 into Bassett and turning right on Trenthill Road to cross the bridge.
