Fish and wildlife access sign

The Converse Bay Fishing Access Area on Lake Champlain in Charlotte has reopened after undergoing renovations.

The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department says the area is now open for use by anglers and recreational boaters.

The reconstruction project began in late August and the area has been closed since then. The access now has a longer and deeper boat launch ramp, parking that meets the American with Disabilities Act standards and a path to the ramp and dock. There were also infrastructure upgrades to reduce storm water runoff into the lake.
