Water clarity on southern Champlain?

Post by Crayfish »

Has anybody taken a look at the lake south of Westport / Button Bay since all of the rain? Just curious if it's a mud puddle down there or not. Probably heading that way Saturday morning.

Thanks!

Otter Creek was very high when I crossed the bridge in Vergennes yesterday around noon. So wind will determine the direction of flow for all that chocolate milk colored water. Forecast is for north wind tonight and tomorrow changing to south wind on Friday night and into Saturday. So, not easy to guess.

Catch some for us guys, another week going by with all of the boats on dry land for us. Wedding and then a week of Scout camp starting Sunday. I'm taking 4 of my sons up this year. I'll be looking for a report with some nice fish pictures from you guys the next few days though.
