Tully River Description
I’m not quite sure that it is truly central, but the Tully River near Athol is worthy of mention here. Flowing into the Millers River just west of Athol, its main branch runs just over a mile from its beginning at the junction of the west and east branches in downtown Athol. All three of the branches offer excellent fishing for stocked and holdover browns and rainbows, and in its upper reaches there are native brook trout. The most popular access for the main portion of the river can be found by turning off Route 2A west of where it crosses the Millers River. This puts you on North Orange Road, which parallels the river. To find the West Branch, take Route 32 (West Royalston Road) and stay to the left when it splits. This is Tully Road, and it follows the West Branch to Tully Pond. If you take the right turn when West Royalton Road splits, you’ll find that it parallels the East Branch to Tully Lake.
