Lake Vermilion family resort fun

Lake Vermilion family resort fun was the name of the game last week.  From campfires, to paddle boarding, to swimming, to tether ball... family vacation season was in full swing.     Add in some impressive evening volleyball, and things were hopping! How was the fishing?  Never a popular answer, but it really depended on who you asked.  Some guests did well all week long, while [...]

2019 Lake Vermilion extended spring fishing

When is the summer of 2019 coming to Lake Vermilion?  We are half way through June and it hasn't arrived yet.  While we were happy to get a couple nice days last week, they were just enough to remind us what we seem to have missed so far this spring.  So what has that meant for the bite?  For many last week was a pretty [...]

Lake Vermilion late May fishing

Lake Vermilion late May fishing has continued to show some inconsistency.  While some guests have been happy with their success, others have found a tough bite.  Minnows continue to be the bait of choice for the walleyes and jumbo perch, and artificials are producing bass and northerns. It is redundant, but the bigger walleyes are still shallow.  Lots of smaller ones and eaters are being [...]

Lake Vermilion fishing mid-May

Lake Vermilion fishing mid-May has gotten mixed reviews.   Depends on who you ask AND when you ask them.  We had 9 out of 10 cabins with returning guests this past weekend, so it was a pretty experienced Lake Vermilion crowd.  While the City Auto Glass teams had to endure the conditions on Saturday, others found the cold wind and spotty showers a deterrent.  For many [...]

Lake Vermilion walleyes and muskies and bass…..

Lake Vermilion walleyes and muskies and bass.....  In typical fashion, the up and down weather of September produced the same up and down fishing action.  The walleye and bass proved to be the most consistent bite last week although they didn't get too much pressure.  Many were scouting the muskies in preparation for the weekend's PMTT Mega tourney.  Here is one caught by Kevin Rabska, [...]

Lake Vermilion weather TOO nice??

Can the Lake Vermilion weather be too nice?   Depends on who you ask.  We had some families focused on using the pool, tubing, cruising the lake and taking in the tourist attractions, and for them the past week's weather was just perfect.  For those who were fishing muskies, the mid 70 to mid 80 blue sky calm wind days were not what they were hoping [...]
