Would like to say the pool is ready and getting plenty of action, but only one part of that would be true. The pool is ready, but Mother Nature is staying true to her early season pattern, and swimming weather has not yet arrived. While the rain and cool temps took its toll on some guests who opted for more cribbage than usual, they still caught enough fish for their usual Lake Vermilion fish frys with some exciting Musky stories as well – like a double with the second one getting off boatside as they worked to get the first one released! Among some of the good ones:
25″ Walleye – Ross Fitsimmons
23″ Walleye – Ross Fitsimmons
20″ Smallmouth Bass – Dick Matt
36″ Northern – Ross Fitsimmons
This week finds several returning guests who know the lake well needing to sort out cooler than normal water temps, but if the fish cleaning house is any indication, they are making progress.
