Brook Trout, Pike, and the Future of NEK Fisheries

This week on St. Johnsbury Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram’s Outdoor Edge, we’re talking spring in the Northeast Kingdom—from the streams and lakes to the backyard. Gary Moore sits down with Jud Kratzer, fisheries biologist with Vermont Fish & Wildlife based in St. Johnsbury. Jud discusses managing Northeast Kingdom fisheries, habitat restoration projects, fisheries research, and what anglers are seeing this time of year—from brook trout to northern pike. If you enjoy fishing the waters of Vermont and New Hampshire, this is a conversation worth hearing. We’re also launching our brand-new Spring Backyard Report with Billy Dickey from Dick’s Field and Tree, talking about getting your property ready for spring, cleanup season, and making the most of the warmer weather ahead. Plus, Mark Breen from the Fairbanks Museum joins us with the Outdoor Edge Forecast to help you plan your time outside. 🎧 Listen now: https://wykr.com 🌦️ Forecasts from the Fairbanks Museum: https://fairbanksmuseum.org #OutdoorEdge #WYKR #NortheastKingdom #JudKratzer #VermontFishAndWildlife #FishingVermont #BrookTrout #NorthernPike #VermontFishing #SpringFishing #BackyardReport #DicksFieldAndTree #OutdoorLife #VTOutdoors #NHOutdoors #FairbanksMuseum #OutdoorForecast #NorthCountry #NewEnglandOutdoors #FishingPodcast   Special Thanks to this Episode's Sponsors: R and L Archery Northeast Kingdom Online Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department Riverside Designworks PLC Miles Supply CCR Sports Batchelder Carpentry And Of Course:  Saint Johnsbury Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram
