You will want to talk to Drew Price. See: https://dponthefly.blogspot.com/2017/02/vermont-master-angler-whitefish.htmlPretty sure he's on this site, posting as FlyPredatorVT
Just call fish and wildlife and ask. Thats your safest bet. Good luck
Like fishy1 said, there is no closed season on whitefish. There is also no limit on them, as far as size OR number. The only thing keeping them from being popular as a game fish is that they are typically hard to catch. UVM has characterized the population in Champ as "unexploited". They are the best tasting fish in the state if you ask me; even better than walleye!
Thirty plus years ago I went to a commercial netting operation across border the in Missisquoi Bay. I got lost in the fog while duck hunting, and ended up somewhere near Venise Bay.You could buy them on the shore; but most were sold in Montreal. I doubt if it's still legal any more, even in Canada.
Last Friday my friend caught a White fish in Maquam. He returned it in water. Thanks! 👍🏻
Awesome fish! What did he catch it on?
