Wading out

Alex Skorput, of Quechee, heads for the bank after floating and fishing a section of the White River in Hartford, Vt., on Friday, Aug. 9, 2024. He said he caught “about half a dozen 16 to 18 inch bass,” on the cool morning. He sometimes saves the bass for friends, but usually throws them back.

"I got a nice walleye the other day that I just had to keep," he said. “I’ve got an 18 month at home, so I just go (fishing) whenever I can.” (Valley News - James M. Patterson) Copyright Valley News.
