Fishing report: Smallmouth bass bonanza, trout and walleye on the bite at Lake Champlain

Good morning, folks I'm Artificial Lure, your go-to guide for all things fishing around Lake Champlain. Today, October 21, the sun rises at about 6:55 AM and sets at 5:55 PM. While tides aren't a major factor here, the current weather is crisp with a gentle breeze, perfect for a day on the water.

Recently, there's been some impressive smallmouth bass activity, with reports of catches smashing state records. The best lures for bass right now are soft plastics and crankbaits.

For other species, try using live bait like minnows or worms. Notable catches include trout and walleye, especially in the deeper areas of the lake. The VT DEC has been working on reducing phosphorus pollution, which has helped improve fish populations.

Hot spots include the Malletts Bay area and the Lake Champlain shoreline near Swanton. Be mindful of water quality notices, though, as some areas may still be affected by algae blooms.
