| Oddly, I rarely see people fishing in the summer on my way to the trailheads. I've probably passed a couple but outside of the several ponds & streams in Baxter State Park, no other trail location has me thinking fish.
Therefore, Baxter State Park would be my first choice. You need to get reservations & the camping is usually more of a car set up but you proabbly could arrange to switch a couple of locations. Typically, now it is too late to get reservations but mid-week & away from the bustle of the campsites near Katahdin, you may do okay.
The long trail in VT doesn't lend itself to catching fish everyday but north of Camel's Hump you cross one of VT's larger rivers, (Wisnooski? maybe?)
About the only place I regularly see people fish in the Whites are the ponds near Cannon (Profile lake & ?)
Without elevation gain, check out NH's Bear Camp River. I'm a peak junkie so I'm not up on it but for some reason I'm thinking this may be a good choice.
Probably a better option would be kayak camping, bring equipment in kayaks & plan a multi-day trip. IMO the ADK's in NY is better suited for this.
If we add NY, the Catskills have some very good fishing streams. Not sure the streams are intertwined with the hiking trails though.
