Cooler Weather, Promising Fishing on Lake Champlain: Trout, Salmon, and Bass Thrive in Fall Conditions

サマリー
あらすじ・解説
As of November 16, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Champlain is looking exceptionally promising, especially for those targeting cold-water species. Here’s what you can expect today:
The weather is crisp and cool, feeling very much like fall, with partly cloudy skies and a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. Winds are moderate, coming in from the northwest at about 10-15 mph. Sunrise was at 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at about 4:15 PM, giving you a good window for both morning and late afternoon fishing.
Since Lake Champlain is a freshwater lake, tidal conditions are not a factor, but water levels are currently a bit high due to recent rainfall. However, this has not deterred the fish from biting.
Yesterday saw steady action, particularly for Lake Trout and Atlantic Salmon. Lake Trout were caught in depths of about 50-60 feet over 200 feet of water, with dark color spoons such as blue, purple, and green stingers performing well. Atlantic Salmon were also active, especially during low light conditions, and were caught using small spoons from 25 to 40 feet down. Anglers reported catching several Lake Trout in the 3-5 pound range, along with a few Atlantic Salmon.
For bait, using lures that mimic baitfish, such as Honeybees and other stinger-type spoons, has been effective. Copper and orange, or rainbow trout and green spoons, have also been successful. Live bait like smelt or shiners can also be very productive for all these species.
Smallmouth bass fishing was also good, with many fish caught in the shallower areas using soft plastics and crankbaits.
Hot spots include the area around the Palisades and Slack Line, known for its rocky structures that attract both bass and trout. Another good spot is the northern part of the lake near the Champlain Bridge, where the deeper waters are home to Lake Trout and Atlantic Salmon. The western Vermont lakes, ponds, and bays of Lake Champlain, particularly around the Inland Sea, have also been particularly productive.
Overall, it's an excellent time to get out on Lake Champlain, with the cooler weather and stable water conditions making it ideal for targeting these cold-water species. Just be sure to dress warmly and be prepared for changing weather conditions.
