Angler Lands Vermont State-Record Walleye While Ice Fishing on Lake Champlain
Angler Lands Vermont State-Record Walleye While Ice Fishing on Lake Champlain
The fish ate a 3-1/2-inch golden shiner hooked just under the dorsal fin with a size-2 Gamakatsu Walleye Wide Gap hook and 8-pound-test Eagle Claw mono. Goldens are one of many natural shiner species that reside in Champlain.

in maine we are allowed to only set out 5 traps, 2 in trophy waters.
sweet! congrads!
on *lb test I am surprised that it didn't break the line when he was pulling it through the hold.
Congrats Man!!
great fish
That thing is a monster! Way to go nice catch.
WOW what a fish!!! Never saw one that size.
Wow great fish, congratulations.
What a FISH! That would blow my mind pulling that thing out of the ice. Congrats!
congrats it is obvious to see you deserve a fish like this with all the time you put into it!! great job..
nice fish,,it pry didnt fight to hard in ice water
what size hole did you have a 8 inch or ten inch
In photo #6 it looks like T-Rex with tiny little arms. What a thrill it must have been to get that fish, especially on a tip up. Good job fella! What type of jig did you have tied on?
Great job!!!
great fish #6.As for myself I would have done all the measurements and pictures as fast as I could and sent her back down the hole.
Hell of a walleye. Validation on a few points..That records are still out there to be caught, and that ice fishing can produce these trophies! Keep the photos coming!
