Lake Vermilion ice out 2019 – Everett Bay clear

Lake Vermilion ice out 2019 - Everett Bay clear - April 26th.  If there is any ice left on our bay, it is tucked in the far east corner.  A trip up the road to take some video of the great sound the ice makes as it is jostled around by the waves was unproductive.  As this picture shows, looking eastward from the narrows, a boat ride would be necessary to accomplish that task.

Lake Vermilion Hatchery Sucker net

The Lake Vermilion Hatchery sucker net provided a bit of frenzied action.  A majority of the first day's catch on Saturday, April 20th was suckers, as is usually the case.  Take a look: https://youtu.be/bYAlzAdVhI0 Suckers are sold for $10 / 100 pounds, and make their way to smokers across the area.  For more details about the Vermilion Lake Association's Sucker Sale which kicks off this morning, visit their site: https://www.vermilionlakeassociation.org/find-the-smoker-sucker-sales-to-begin-soon/?fbclid=IwAR3H_2Cd25VIC1qjzhmK26PBCk4pFwCeC7ThEGi1Gf1hZdwJqGqiAYjrhGs If you missed our post [...]

2019 Lake Vermilion Ice out begins

2019 Lake Vermilion ice out begins right on schedule. Add rain to the more than generous snow fall of the season and the Pike River dam is armed and ready for some serious flow. Check out our annual video and note the progress as the open water makes its way toward the first bend. Always an exciting sight as we all know as soon as it clears the Pike River Hatchery the cradles and net [...]
