My great uncle had a camp on beech hill pond I remember someone telling me that there were nice lake trout and that the deepest point is 104 feet Have you done tunk lake I believe it's 222 feet at its deepest I'd like to see what's down there
I do have a video at Tunk Lake and did check out the deep spot when I was there but I didn’t encounter any fish that day. Definitely plan on checking out more of the deeper areas at Beech Hill as well when I can get back there!
I have never eaten lake trout I have heard its REALY good, I think I hooked up with a lake trout, ice fishing 4 smelt in Lake Champlain fishing with my dad as the smelt all of a sudden stopped biting and dad said " be prepaired and hang on to your jig stick , you are about to be hit HARD!!, HE WAS RIGHT!! SOMTHING SLAMEDMY LINE AND BROKE MY JIG STICK , THEN BROKE THE 15lb test line a seond later, A few minutes later dad got hit but he hung on and wrestled the thing to the surface, THEN HE COULDNT GET THROUGH THE SMALL HOLE IN THE ICE !! ( we were fishing 4 smelt after all!!)
@@earlwheelock7844 it's an acquired taste. Many people around here smoke them. The smaller ones are better - 18-23 inch range. There's definitely some big ones in Champlain. They have done very well in there since they started controlling the lamprey population.
Awesome!!
Very interesting! Thanks!
Love diving this pond. Saw a horned pout by that junk of pork rock this summer. Was unreal. Huge.
Amazing footage once again. Love how that one around 7:00 let you get a real good look up close!
I lost a big Murray spoon down there back in the seventies.
Big fish swim away with it?
Nope, got snagged on that rocky bottom. We old timers used to "pound bottom" Its all done with downriggers and side scan sonar these days.
Pretty darn cool! How deep of water were they congregating? Not looking to fish just genuinely curious
The depth is displayed in the top left corner of vid.
@@calamityjane7699 thanks I missed that!
It looked to ME like between 4 and about 6ft. ( seems pretty shallow 4 lake trout, ) whats in that lake 4 lake trout 2 eat??
The depth display in the top left is how deep the drone is in the water column, overall depth was I’d say 10’ to 15’.
They’re in more shallow water this time of year to spawn, the usual prey items exist here for them to eat. Smelts, suckers, etc.

I wonder if MAIN stocks that lake and what in that lake that lake they eat??
I believe they no longer stock beech hill
The Togue in this lake are all wild. In fact, they are overpopulated and IFW has a 6 fish limit on Togue. The state does stock salmon in there though.

Probably best to just show the footage and not share what lakes the footage is coming from
Who cares
@ ya know from keeping more people from going there and over fishing the lake
