DAN AND FAMILY JULY 15, 2013 CHARTER

The Captain left the dock at approx. 9:30 AM with Dan and his family on board.

The goal was to fish for perch and bass on this charter.

It didn't take long for the Captain to find the school of perch he was looking for.

The kids reeled the perch in one after another.

One Blue Gill caught for the day.

The catch included several small mouth bass and one large mouth bass.

Exciting!!!!!!

This perch thought it was going to get away from the Captain, not so fast little guy....

Thanks for spending your vacation time with Lake Champlain Trout Scout Charters.

What a great time the Captain had with this family, and he wants to tell you once again what a great job you did fishing on the Missy Jean.

Thanks for stopping by.

Lake Champlain Trout Scout Charters had a fantastic charter on July 26th.

The Captain left the dock with his charter at 7:30 AM with a couple of young men and their dads.

Within minutes of setting the lines, FISH ON!!!

The boys managed to reel in nine lakers and one brown trout.

The Captain enjoys finding the fish for his clients, but this charter was really special indeed.

The Captain wants to thank all of you for a great time and tell you once again what a great job!!

Thanks for stopping by.

JULY 5TH CHARTER

July 5th charter.

We started the day at Apple Tree Marina launch in South Hero.  We were on the water around 5 am.

I had Gerry, Dave and my first mate Kevin on board.

We were out for a six hour charter on the Inland Sea on Lake Champlain, targeting land lock salmon.

We set out an eight line spread and we had our first salmon on in just a short time.

The water was choppy which is perfect for salmon fishing, the air temperature was comfortable.

Total take for the day was five salmon.

It sure was a pleasure having Gerry and Dave on board today.

Thanks for stopping by.

I met the group at 6:00 am for our eight hour charter.

We left the East Shore launch in Isle La Motte and headed south to find warmer waters.

Three on board and ready to fish.

The morning was beautiful with light south winds, with a little 6 inch chop.

Set out a 8 line spread and had our first fish on approx. 7:00 am.

The afternoon warmed up to the mid 70's.

Total take for the day;  three lake trout and one salmon.

Absolute fantastic day was had by all.

Thanks for stopping by.

ALL SYSTEMS A GO

Today was the first day out with the Missy Jean for the 2013 season.

What a shake down it turned out to be!

After several days of getting the boat ready, new top with side curtains, boat and trailer serviced for the new season, a few new toys added and some items replaced that were not working so good at end of last season.

Happy to report everything was flawless including the fishing.

I hit the water at 6:00 am on the East Shore of Isle La Motte.  

Looking for certain water temperatures that would produce some fish,  I found the lake trout  in approx. 25 feet of water, 13 feet down, with a surface temperature of 48 degrees.  

These are just a few photos of the fish I caught for the day, the catch was; 15 lakers, weighing 7-9 lbs.

I had plans to fish with my friend Justin, he could not make it today, maybe next time Justin!

I sure was challenged fishing by myself, reeling and netting these fish alone sure was fun indeed.

FISH ON!

Blue/silver seemed to be the favorite for the day.

The waters were calm for most of the day.  It was a beautiful day here on the Island.  

First 70 degree day sense last year.

Here she is, ready to go for yet another year.

Won't you come join me, Lake Champlain Trout Scout Charters for a day of fishing on the great waters of Lake Champlain?

I would like to thank Kevin and Pam for the pictures they took of me and the boat from a distance out on the water, great photos, thanks guys!

Thanks for stopping by.
