We continue to work our way through the season wrap up "to do" list, but couldn't help ourselves on Wednesday when we couldn't resist the urge to head out on the lake one last time. While it was a windy day, it didn't stop the walleyes from aggressively hammering our minnows - chubs and light pike - didn't seem to matter which. Caught plenty to [...]
Tom Maki with a great 50.75" September Lake Vermilion muskie While the weather wasn't the most cooperative, Tom Maki was rewarded for his efforts with this nice 50.75" Lake Vermilion September muskie. He now has 5 over the 50" mark, with 4 of them coming from Lake Vermilion. Along other lines, the walleye fishing was up and down over the past week, with [...]
The past few weeks have flown by with the first week of the month finding the Minnesota B.A.S.S. Nation Tournament of Champions on the lake. With 31 clubs sending 200 anglers the boat launch saw plenty of action as pre-fishing was going on. The early part of the week was warmer and reports were favorable for good numbers and good size bass. There were also [...]
Last week it was a week of plentiful bass and some "firsts" and "biggest" muskies. Paul Bilodeau, Sr. reported a 50" muskie, his personal best, and a couple other guests also caught their first muskies. Once again there were good numbers of smallmouth bass caught, and some nice northerns were caught when they chased muskie baits. Seemed like the walleyes were a little tougher to [...]

We had so many good photo submissions this week that it was too hard to pick just a couple. Visit our facebook page: Everett.Bay.Lodge.Lake.Vermilion and check out some of the great [...]
The Bergerons on their way to clean their catch. July wrapped up with a nice rebound for walleye fishing. After a couple weeks of more difficult walleye fishing than we'd seen all season, things were back on track for many of our guests - both Lake Vermilion returners and several Lake Vermilion first timers. As is normal for this time of year, both [...]
Denny Janz with one of several Lake Vermilion muskies he caught. Lake Vermilion northern fishing 2014 Lake Vermilion musky fishing With a dose of some HOT weather early this past week, water temps finally moved in the right direction. In turn, the muskie action took off, with the Janz guys boating 10 for the week. They also caught [...]
First fish of the trip for Eric. It's been hard to write a report this season without mentioning the weather, and this past week is no exception. The first several days caught guests leaving the dock in full rain gear, often returning a short time later when the weather got the best of them. While there were some walleyes and bass caught, they [...]
John Stacey caught this 20.25" Lake Vermilion smallmouth bass This past week our guests again enjoyed a mixed bag of fish, with both larger and eater size walleyes being caught and lots of bass action, especially smallmouth bass. There were many cabins that ate fish here and took some home. While there were muskies seen, a few cold nights and water temps that [...]
Craig Pffeifer caught and released this wide 37" Lake Vermilion Northern. Craig Pfeifer caught and released this 37" Lake Vermilion northern. While out in the boat alone he found a way to get the big fish in his un-extended net, but I am guessing he made sure the net was ready every time he went out after that. It was nice to welcome [...]
