Fishing Report 5-25-11



The local fishing is finally taking off. Stream levels have receded and are fishable after the rainiest spring on record. All area streams have received their spring stocking of trout.

The Landlocked Salmon fishing on the Boquet is really good right now. The water level remains high but fishable. Many reports of numerous healthy fish being caught below the falls in Willsboro. The recent introduction of Alewives in the lake has resulted in an overall increase in the size of gamefish that has been quite remarkable. We have heard of 2 fish in the 7-8 pound class caught last week, though I can not confirm this first hand.

These salmon are in the river to feed and are willing to take a variety of offerings. Some lures that have been producing well are: Phoebe's, Little Cleo's, and Colorado Spoons. Fly fishermen do well with streamers such as Grey Ghost, Black Nose Dace, Mickey Finn and White Marabou.
