Lake Vermilion fall fishing news

Lake Vermilion fall fishing news included lots of chatter about the weather.  The past week tested everyone's perseverance.  Although we were happy for the rain, it didn't come at night like we hoped.  Rain suits were key.  Fortunately for many the bite was decent when they were able to get out. Doug Vieth and Larry Kopczyk had a nice outing early in their week catching [...]

Lake Vermilion area attractions

Lake Vermilion area attractions kept 8 year old Eli and 5 year old Abel busy as they spent last week taking advantage of the many things to see and do in Northeast Minnesota.  Rain in the early part of their stay didn't get in the way of their trip to the Soudan Mine https://www.dnr.state.mn.us/state_parks/lake_vermilion_soudan/tours.html.  They were especially interested in taking in some of the local [...]

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 [...]

It has a wonderful deck overlooking your dock space and a perfect spot on the Everett Bay Lodge resort property. This week has been full for quite some [...]

Lake Vermilion Fisheries Plan

Lake Vermilion Fisheries plan covering the 2017-2022 window is aimed at preserving Lake Vermilion as a sustainable, multi-species fishery.  In addition to addressing fish populations, it also focuses on AIS (aquatic invasive species), habitat, double-crested cormorants and fishing tournaments, incorporating data collected over the past twenty years. The chance to catch a trophy musky over 50 inches drives the Muskellunge goal, and was the area [...]

Lake Vermilion still offering up walleyes.

October 2018 Lake Vermilion is still offering up walleyes for those that have kept their boats in the water as the deer opener approaches, but the end is in sight.  The usual fall tactics of trolling crank baits around 2 m.p.h. and lindy rigging deep spots with nice size minnows have continued to produce nice fish.  The water temp was barely above 40 [...]
