Walleye
Walleye fishing near Derby Line requires a bit of exploration, but Lake Memphremagog offers potential if you know where to look. The deeper, cooler sections of the lake, particularly near structure like humps and drop-offs, are where walleye tend to congregate. Spring and fall are the most productive times, as walleye move into shallower water to spawn or feed aggressively before winter. Jigging with minnows or using crankbaits trolled along the bottom are effective techniques. A local's trick: try fishing at night near the bridge in Newport, where the lights attract baitfish, which in turn attract walleye. Also, be aware that walleye populations can fluctuate, so checking recent fishing reports from the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department can be helpful. Using electronics to locate structure and fish is highly recommended for success.
