Vermont Bass Fishing

The bass fishing continues to be EXCELLENT....with stellar panfish fishing in the lunchtime hours. A huge school of jumbo white perch has moved into Pulpits, brown bass will follow them....weed edges are still undefined because of high water....about 30 days from all day action, I hope the really warm weather is over but it is all smiles in my boat these days....LIFE IS GOOD, Fish hard!!!

Vermont Bass Fishing

Vermont Bass Fishing is in high gear....The fishing has been very good...hot baits: green Pumpkin soft plastics, Champlain Nymphs, Arkie meat, poppers, crankbaits, walking dogs, jerk baits and Clouser minnow....In the boat I usually feature spin fishing but if we are hammering them switching to the flyrod is possible. This time of the year it is a morning deal. I normally meet folks at Tom's Bait Shop on Rte 4A in Castleton corners....

OTTER CREEK

The Trophy section of Otter Creek in Danby Vt should get stocked this week....in Southern Vermont this is one of the very best: river, spinfishing for Trout targets...

Top Two Trout Spinning Lures

Here in Vermont any color is good for Trout as long as its GOLD!!!! Here are my two favorite spinning lures for trout fishing rivers and streams. A panther Martin spinner in sizes 2, 3, 4 and a Rapala countdown #5. On 4 or 6 lb test mono, cast upstream and retreive back just a little faster than the current. Other favorites include jigs tipped with either a crawler or twister tail and thomas spoons.....these are my favorites for Vermont Trout spin fishing.
