FISHING TIME IS HERE!!!

Fishing time is here once again. Peter is getting ready to go get the big one!! The weather has to turn around a little bit or he'll be wearing his snowmobile suit.
Pete will cruise around this beautiful lake, Lake Champlain, here in Vermont. You can find Pete out cruising, generally on the head of Isle La Motte for hours until he reels in the big ones.
If you come to our beautiful island and look out onto the waters you may just spot him doing what he loves best, fishing in his Missy Jean, his boat that is!!
We will keep you posted, if he lands the big one we'll let you know.
HAPPY FISHING!!!
