I live in the Adirondack area and it's tough fishing sometimes lake champlain, especially ice fishing it. But when the fishing is good, it tops a lot of places. Great smallmouth and lake trout fishery.
Went fishing on Lake Champlain for Lakers on a charter boat many years ago and the lampreys were awful. We would reel in the fish with 2-3 lampreys hanging off of them. They are disgusting and very foul smelling. The captain collected them and said the only way to kill them is to cut their heads off. He said one of the reasons there are so many in Lake Champlain is because the Dept. of Conservation on the Vermont side are reluctant to use lampricides in the streams that feed the lake where they spawn. I guess they still don't.
Thanks for another great video, Sea-Money! Ever think about blogging about fishing again? Lots of us really enjoyed reading your hymns to the fish gods.
The clipped fin more than likely denotes a stocked fish. Most stocked trout have clipped fins that are an indication of what year they were released. And Champlain is stocked by 2 different states. Not sure how much they coordinate.
I live there, where were you guys fishing. If your fishing in Bulwagga Bay the fishing has slowed down. If you move North to Westport that's where the fishing has picked up. 5 gallon pail of perch, 1 laker and 1 pike
Nice man! I live by round valley ive tried shore fishing the past few weekends just can't seem to get the lakers. Im gonna bring my boat out with my dad maybe this weekend. Any tips for the lake trout? How should i rig up?
If you haven't come across Bass Fishing Jersey's channel on RUclips, search him out. He does a good amount of fishing at Round Valley, even some with Seamoney, and I think you'll find what you're looking for in his vids fishing on Round Valley. Good luck!
CrispyChris i was casting out spoons. Tried some swim baits and even a rattle trap. Im thinking the boat will do but i dont know what to drop down? Jig a spoon or shiner and hook?
Love the vids bro. We have the same fishing gypsy blood. Live on the susquehanna in Harrisburg so I'm always out chasin smallies but I prob fish NY n the coast jst as much between salmon, pike and stripers at island beach (I'm one of the maniacs on the END of the jetty lol). Butttttt.....I've NEVER been ice fishing. A kid I mentors parents have given me a 3 day trip to champlain to take the kid ice fishing (he has all the gear). We are going to missiquo (?) Wildlife refuge on the northern end of the lake, Vermont side. Have noooo clue how to target Lakers but would love to. Any help would be appreciated. More than welcome to join us as well. Tight lines bro
Sea-Money Fishing he's a nice enough guy and if you forgot anything he probably has it there, but you're gonna pay for it. You can almost always count on him having bait if there's a bait shortage like early this winter. If you went straight (instead of turning down the bridge Rd)a few miles just before you get into Port Henry there's a little shop on the left called FMB. Best prices I've ever seen for bait. Awesome guy too. Open till 8am every morning and all day on the weekends. Lake George is always inflated price wise. It's the playground of the wealthy from NYC. Glad to see ya caught some fish though! Champlain has been putting out increasingly bigger/heavier fish since the alewifes showed up. Monster cats too
@@daltonv5206 john at fmb is like the coolest guy n swear he must just break even on his tackle n such there 20bucks goes along way at his store for sure ..thank u john....I would have to dis agree with u on the invasion of the alwives...when the dominant bait fish was smelt here the lake was a true gem ...we would get perch all day n smelt allnite n catch few lakers an salmon long the way ..those days are gone ...n do a lil research on alwives ...they have neurotoxin that in quantity can destroy the reproductive organs of larger fish ...where we once could get 100smelt a night not even trying I haven't caught one smelt in the same waters in ...12...maybe 15 years ...real shame
It's cool you 3 are friends, it's tough to find guys who are serious fishermen, I've found my share of clowns that care more about what's in their flask! Nice vid #fuckcancer
Dude- do you know how much I spent on fishing gear because of your videos. Lets put it this way -- good thing my wife does NOT! but thanks man --oh and by the way Kenny sucks at fishing - didn't know if you knew that.
That dam little perch was the high light of my day one. Still can't believe you snagged a laker!

Where the walleye and crappie at
I like watching them videos of you and your buds catching Flatheads ( or Shovelheads, that’s what they call them up in Ohio), from that river in PA.!

Not the case, at least on the VT side of the lake. Lampricide is used regularly during the lamprey spawn and their numbers are way down.

Damn brother you go just about everywhere fishing for anything & everything! I envy you!! I can dig it!! 👍
Looks cold, damn. 71 here in California today, had to put sock on with my flip-flops last night.

VermontBrothers You mean the best part of living in New York! ............
Congrats on the PB bro. Nice to see all three of you guys in a video again. 👍🏻👊🏻💥🐟💯

Great fishing! I avoid the cold at all costs, that's why I hang out in Okinawa! Great stuff!
Love the videos man. I'm born and raised on philly area waters but live in the desert southwest now. I love vicariously through you!! Lol

CrispyChris i was casting out spoons. Tried some swim baits and even a rattle trap. Im thinking the boat will do but i dont know what to drop down? Jig a spoon or shiner and hook?

Great first day of ice fishing. That was a huge staged lake trout though.
Should have gone north.. port henry isnt the best for lakers.. and next time stop at bizons for bait way cheaper and a nice humble guy!!
Exactly 300th Like :) Nice Vid Man, Good luck
💯💪👊LET'S GO!!! Gonna b sick already know it💯
7:30 those are the ones u want to keep. If you eat fish.
Nice gesture wetting your hands before manipulating your first laker, way to keep them healthy :)
headed up feb 15 16 &17 if you want to link up
Where on lake champlain did u fish? Thats where i live
You are gonna want to get an 8" or 10" auger if you keep Laker fishing! A good one won't come through a 6" hole!
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm the sound of drag slapping ice off the spool
Jeux vidéo bonne continuation à toi et bonne journée
duuuude my home lake! i live in vermont
Mine too
champlain in VT?
The north east squad just need a south man Lol
Maybe north east versus the mid west? In a fishing tournament
It's cool you 3 are friends, it's tough to find guys who are serious fishermen, I've found my share of clowns that care more about what's in their flask! Nice vid #fuckcancer
Do some more pure fishing
What flasher are you useing?
its a marcum showdown troller
little hunts...lol
Place is called missisquoi
Dude- do you know how much I spent on fishing gear because of your videos. Lets put it this way -- good thing my wife does NOT! but thanks man --oh and by the way Kenny sucks at fishing - didn't know if you knew that.
