Largemouth & Smallmouth Bass Fishing Covering the waters & woods of the beautiful Northeast Kingdom area of Vermont  Fishermen in the Northeast and elsewhere may consider Lake Champlain as a prime bass fishing spot in New England. But tucked in the hills of Northeastern Vermont, Lake Memphremagog and Moore reservoir abound with both largemouth and smallmouth bass.
Unsullied by large fishing tournaments, some big fish have never seen the pressure of some of the more well known bass waters in Vermont. Prime fishing season begins the second Saturday in June, and Bill Engelmann has his boat in the water, ready to guide you to the best fishing spots in the Northeast Kingdom. The best time to go bass fishing is when the season opens. For several weeks thereafter, bass are frequently found in the shallows.

Around August, when the shallow water has been heated by the summer sun, the big fish head for deeper water. In early autumn, they return to the shallows for awhile, until the cold weather makes them retreat to the warmer deep water. The best time to catch large and smallmouth bass is early morning, early evening and late evening. Smallmouth prefer submerged rocks around islands and along the shore such as those found in Moore Reservoir. Largemouth are more often found in weedy areas along the edges of lake marshes, which are abundant in Lake Memphremagog. Regardless of the time of year or which fish you want to catch, Bill Engelmann is anxious to show you the best places to fish in his quiet corner of the world.
