Lake Champlain Walleye Association and Vermont Fish & Wildlife have been working for decades to increase the population of walleyes in the lake and its surrounding rivers.

Thursday they harvested a St. Albans pond of 12,500 walleye fingerlings, which will be making their way into the Winooski River.

Editor's Note: My good friend and fellow filmmaker Keith Wilson of Walleye Productions makes a brief appearance in this video.
