Small mouth bass spot
A great little gem in southern Vermont. This body of water is a public water supply. The water is crystal clear, I could still see the bottom clearly at 12ft. The fish are spooky so use light gear and live bait.Added by: brettinbrookline

Small mouth heaven
Look for deep pools at bends or trees in the water. Kayak fishermen will have a better shot at the action.Added by: brettinbrookline
