After 3 years, we made our return trip to LC on the inland sea (IS). It was great to be back on the this wonderful body of water.
We launched from Swanton and headed south. We started to set up lines along side of Butler Island. As I sent down the 1st line, I didn't have time to turn to set up the 2nd rigger, the line I had just sent down triggered. Strangely enough it turned out to be a good size small mouth bass. Finished setting up the lines and we trolled at 2.2 - 2.8 mph (GPS), with one rigger at 70' and the 2nd 40' in 75-130 FOW. We saw a few bait balls between 10' to 30', and lookers/followers come up on our lines, but no takers. There was a good NW wind as we headed back north.
In all we were very happy to spend the day on the waters of Lake Champlain.
