Northern Champlain/Missisquoi Bay
« on: Feb 08, 2021, 12:17 PM »
Heading up in a couple of weeks, just wondering how much ice/snow there was in the Missisquoi Bay area.  I didn't see anything on the Vermont Conditions page.  Thanks in advance!  Tight lines!

Don’t know about missisquoi specifically but fished keeler bay this past Saturday and had over 12” of good ice. Lots of wheelers and sleds out. Heard carry was the same. Good luck. Wasn’t much snow on top.

Miss bay is good. Plenty of ice and the snow is manageable. Tabor point has alot of snow piled up and not many venturing far out.

There was 16” of ice and maybe 8-10” of snow some areas are packed snow and less. Great pike bite currently also there’s 2 Rds plowed going out to goose and gander bay

I have an older Honda fourtrax 300 with Kendra mud tires and it did well. We hook the trailer I use to get it to the ice behind the atv and bring all our gear and my fishing buddy in the trailer lol
