People are fishing Mississquoi Bay, Carry Bay, Dillenbecks, St Albans Bay ..... 6-8 inches in most places.  Got a bit thinner with the rain but it will come back fast when the weather cools off again.

On Saturday I was set up close to where the river flows into Missisquoi, and there was about 10". Further away from the river there was over a foot I heard, people were driving out, shanties out there too. I think I heard some people were out on Maquam bay too.
The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable,
a perpetual series of occasions for hope.

It was out to Lazy Lady before the rain, I'd give it a couple days to recover from the warm weather.  I fished it for a while last weekend, had 4-5 inches in close to the Town Park and about 3 inches 300 yds off shore. I expect it was up to 6 inches before the warm spell.  People are catching small pike on Lapan Bay, none worth keeping though.
