Lake Vermilion Fish Report July 14, 2013
It was a mixed week of fishing for our guests, with the early week walleye bite holding strong, only to taper off a bit as the mayfly hatch began to go full swing. Dave Jozwiak caught a nice 25.5" walleye early in his stay, only to be trumped by his fishing partner and wife, Monica, who caught a terrific 30" walleye, making our Everett Bay Lodge Wall of Fame on her first trip to Vermilion.

Lake Vermilion Fish Report – July 6, 2013
Another block of great weather and fishing in the books! Between the smallmouth bass and the walleyes, there was plenty of fishing action to go around, and another week of fabulous weather found many tuckered out after a full schedule of swimming, tubing, playing volleyball & horseshoes and oh yes --- frying fish! We welcomed a new group to Lake Vermilion and were thrilled that it didn't take them long to sort things out and [...]

The trend of solid walleye fishing continued again as guests that have been with us for many, many years reported this past week's fishing to be among the best if not "the" best they have enjoyed. Again, the presentation of choice didn't seem to matter much, as some trolled crankbaits, while others jigged or used slip bobbers. Bait choice was split between leeches and crawlers for walleyes. With the great stretch of weather the past [...]
Lake Vermilion Fishing Report – June 23, 2013
While the weather wasn't the greatest, it was good enough for families to enjoy the pool and the walleye bite resulted in another week of plenty of fish to eat. There were windows of time when the bite was very steady, with some returning guests describing the week as "maybe the best" they have had during their annual weeklong visit to Lake Vermilion. A sample of the fish our guests told us about this past [...]

It has been another nice week of fishing as the shallow water temps rose over 10 degrees from the time guests arrived last Saturday and the time they left yesterday. Had a couple cabins that had their fill of fish fry's and ended up their weeks with their last limit to take home - can't get any better than that. In fact, Steve DesJardin told us as he was checking out that if someone invited [...]
