Title: White fish on Champlain
Post by: David Vadnais on Aug 30, 2021, 12:14 PM

Hi everyone,

Question for you!
I would like to know if white fish is open during ice fishing season on lake Champlain?

Thanks for your answer!
David

Yes, you can fish for whitefish. They are not regulated at all on Champlain so there are no size or creel limits, and you can fish for them year round.

You can find the Lake Champlain ice fishing regulations on Table 9 here: https://www.eregulations.com/vermont/fishing/tables (https://www.eregulations.com/vermont/fishing/tables). A bunch of Vermont fishing regulations are changing on January 1st, but Lake Champlain is mostly unaffected.

Thank you so much Boatless in BTV.

I fished often lake Champlain on ice in Vermont. But I don't have White fish in my species catched in this lake. 😉

One thing to consider is the locations thw whitefish will be are generally where the most dangerous ice conditions exist (deeper water) with some exceptions...
