We don't have a lot of tailwaters in VT, and most of them are a long drive from my home.
I managed to fish a couple weeks ago near Rochester, VT, along Rt. 125, upstream of Texas Falls. It was 66F up there. I got a few very small wild brookies that day. But, other than that day, I haven't been fishing. Here are some recent water temperature readings:
White River - Main Branch - 76F
Locust Creek - 75F
Stony Creek - 72F
Barton River, near Glover - 71F
Black River in Irasburg - 75.5F
We need rain and we need cooler temperatures. Until then, I either have to travel to fish or just do something else on the weekends. I kind of doubt that my wife would support me getting a fishing boat to use on Lake Champlain, but it would sure be nice to have this summer.
On 4 of those waters listed above, I have never recorded a temperature above 70F before this season.
