Tuna
Tuna in Lake Champlain near Silver Bay? It's highly unlikely, as tuna are saltwater fish. However, if you were to target tuna in the Atlantic Ocean near the mouth of the Hudson River, a considerable distance from Silver Bay, focusing on seasonal forage fish migrations is critical. The best time is typically late summer and early fall when warmer waters push closer to the coast and baitfish concentrate. Look for temperature breaks and areas with upwellings, as these often hold concentrations of tuna. Keep an eye on local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on where the tuna are biting. When you do locate them, be prepared for a fight! Use heavy tackle and be mindful of the strong currents often present in these offshore waters. Remember that you will need the appropriate saltwater fishing licenses and permits.
