Bass Fishing Reports

 

One of the benefits of being part of a community of anglers is fishing reports. You can read, write, and evaluate reports in our forum at Bass Fishing Reports.

 

These reports will be here for years to come. Want to know what other anglers did at a lake last Spring? Click on your State and see if there are any reports available. It can also be your own ledger to keep up with how you did.

 

When creating a fishing report try to include as much information as possible. For example outdoor temperature, water temperature, water clarity, cloudy or sunny etc…. These will create a basis for yourself and other anglers to look a. Both when catching is good or not so good.

 

Every time you go fish stop by and let us know how you did. You will not only be benefiting yourself, but also your fellow anglers.

VT – Ice Fishing Opportunities are Great Where Ice is Safe

Ice Fishing Opportunities are Great Where Ice is Safe

WAITSFIELD, Vt — Vermont offers great ice fishing on lakes throughout the state when ice conditions are safe. Vermont Fish and Wildlife recommends at least six inches of solid ice for safe ice fishing.

Vermont’s premier fishing destination, Lake Champlain, offers many ice fishing opportunities. According to the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department, ice anglers can find quality fishing for many species on this 120-mile long lake, including landlocked salmon, lake trout, northern pike, yellow perch, white perch, walleye, crappie, and smelt.

“Lake Champlain attracts twice as much fishing activity during the winter as during the summer, particularly in the northern third of the lake,” said State Fisheries Biologist Brian Chipman. “The plentiful yellow perch is the mainstay of the winter fishery, but many ice anglers also find good fishing for other species.”

ND – Careful When Removing Fish Houses

Early ice fishing reports from many areas of the state have been promising. However, the North Dakota Game and Fish Department advises winter anglers to be cautious when moving or removing permanent fish houses and travelling on state lakes.

Robert Timian, chief game warden, said an unseasonably mild winter has caused some ice houses to already break through the ice. “Record breaking high temperatures and strong winds this winter have resulted in inconsistent ice conditions in much of the state,” Timian said. “Anglers should assess the need to move their respective ice houses. If ice conditions on a lake deteriorate, they should check the weather forecast and consider removing their house.”
