Lake Vermilion August news brings more of the same - great weeks for some of our guests...a little tougher for others. An early stay outing with a guide for the Lane group was productive.They kept several walleyes for the skillet and released the nice 25"er shown above caught by Kelsey. Guests had mixed reports, with those that caught walleyes doing well with crawlers in 18 [...]
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 [...]
August fishing on Lake Vermilion holds steady as we approach the midpoint of the month. Last week continued where the prior week left off, with Lake Vermilion guide Buck Lescarbeau leading our guests to some productive spots. The Johnsons and their grandson Jordan were just short of their limits on a 1/2 day outing when they arrived on Saturday, Jordan taking big fish honors with [...]
Summer has arrived on Lake Vermilion, although it took a long time to get here! Water temps took a nice jump up this past week, climbing over 5 degrees to pass the 80 degree mark. So what's that done to the fishing? Depends who you ask. It definitely made the pool a popular place as many families with children spent the week with us on [...]
Lake Vermilion mid-September fishing news has varied, with some guests doing very well on walleyes and jumbo perch while others have spent their time chasing muskies. While muskies have been seen in both weeds and on the rocks, they have been reluctant to bite in most cases. Dan Andrews was able to boat a couple - a 47" and a 45"- but those were the [...]
August fishing on Lake Vermilion has found smallmouth and largemouth bass action staying strong. A good number of decent bass have been caught and released, along with a couple outings of over 30 northern caught, several in the 30 - 36" range. Walleye fishing has continued to produce mainly eater size fish, but we'd expect to see some larger ones as the weeks in [...]
Lake Vermilion fishing has been up and down over the past week, with plenty of walleyes showing up on the sonar and the ones that are caught showing signs that the perch hatch and crayfish are serving as their bait of choice. It has been a little tougher to get them to bite, but those that stayed with it were eventually rewarded for their effort. [...]
Mid August Lake Vermilion fishing - Everett Bay Lodge guests had mixed results. In short, some of everything was caught, but it wasn't the easiest week on the lake. Guys fishing for Bass caught Muskies, guys fishing for Muskies caught Bass, and there were some walleyes caught - both eaters and larger ones. The Henseler boys along with nearly 40 of their relatives, spent their [...]
Cliff Wagenbach cleaning jumbos and walleyes with Jon Wilson Lake Vermilion mid July fishing for our guests has been up and down, just like the weather. Plenty of people marking nice schools of fish on the graph, but feeding behavior has been pretty difficult to predict. Lake Vermilion guide Cliff Wagenbach spent a day with Jon Wilson and some of his family, and [...]
Just in time as the ice on the bay has formed with no plans to retreat. The Bowman crew finished up their annual week long stay taking advantage of every bit of Everett Bay's last open water Mother Nature had to offer. The water temps dropped just as the crew arrived, and it was definitely a week of transition. We appreciate Bob Bowman's reliability [...]
