Here's where I look for Lake Champlain weather, there is an interactive map for potential wind direction as well as a few temperature gages. Diamond Island off Otter Creek is a good one to keep an eye on since it is really close to the mouth of Otter Creek.

I've generally done better in that area of the lake in May, early to Memorial Day, usually by Memorial Day the salmon are down a few feet.

FWIW my experience on the lake in the spring is a decade old. I usually go out in the winter with a buddy who knows the lake well.

Looks like Burlington Bay is still 36 degrees I'd hold out a bit I probably won't make a trip till last week of April first of May.

Dirt23:
