We went on a field trip this morning. Checked out the Ed Weed Fish hatchery in Grand Isle, Vt, across the road from the Grand Isle ferry landing. Our first visit since it opened 30 years ago. We took a self guided tour and had the place to ourselves.

We watched an episode of Expedition X and the topic was Champ. Of course they never really had a verdict but it was interesting.
 
Ya, it's folklore. I spent a lot of time on the bottom diving in the early 80's, found a lot of stuff but no Champ skat. Lol
 
The whole time watching all I could think about was you out on the lake and wondering if you had ever seen anything out of the ordinary.

LOL, plenty of "out of the ordinary" to be seen, but its usually humans on some form of flotation that get your attention. Seen all kinds of fish but no Lake Monsters yet.
 
Awesome post! I’m going to see if they have tours of the hatchery I drive past each time I go to town !
 
The hatchery brook was where I saw this fish swimming a couple of weeks ago.
