MONTPELIER – The Vermont walleye fishing season opens on Saturday, May 3, marking the return of some of the best walleye fishing in New England.
Excellent spring walleye fishing can be found in several Vermont lakes and rivers, including Lake Champlain and its tributaries – the Missisquoi, Lamoille, and Winooski rivers, and Otter Creek. In the Northeast Kingdom, Salem Lake and Island Pond also have walleye populations that are on the rebound, thanks to stocking by the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department.
