Sauger in Lake Champlain ??
« on: Mar 13, 2008, 01:46 PM »
Has anyone caught any Sauger in Lake Champlain lately ?? I can remember catching quite a few years back
and they were a great eating fish and were in the Walleye family and had no limits on them . last one i caught was  about 10 years ago down by the Ticonderoga Paper Mill on Vt side but 1 and only one i caught . Just wondering what happened to them , Any thoughts ??  ::)

I know Vermont Fish and Wildlife and New York DEC has looked for sauger as well as native strain Muskie.  Thus far it seems like they're both extinct.
