Lake Champlain Tributaries
Tuesday, May 12, 2015

Water Temp: 

58-66

Water Clarity: 

OFF

Hatches: 

Caddis

Suggested Patterns: 

RAINBOWS: Princes #10-14, Stoneflies #6-10, Caddis #8-12, Sucker Spawn, Eggs, Juans, Streamers (white and black) BASS: Ghostbuster Crawfish, Near Nuff Crawfish, Girdle Bug #6-8, Streamers

The Lake Trib Smallmouth run is in full swing. You will find fish all over most of the lake tribs with suitable spawning habitat. They should still be relatively aggressive, prior to moving to the beds and certainly in the higher water. Hopefully the rain brought in some fresh fish as well. It should make for some good fishing. There are still some Rainbows in the system, though their numbers are going down. It's not a concern in the off colored water, but once it clears if you're targeting trout, you may need to lighten up your tippet.
