Lake Bomoseen

Anglers know Lake Bomoseen as one of the lesser-trafficked lakes of Vermont, United States. The standard playbook on a lake this size is to start shallow at first light, work outward toward deeper water as the sun climbs, and circle back to the shallows before dusk. Surface activity at Lake Bomoseen is a useful tell — boils, swirls, and rising baitfish point straight at the predator zone.
