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 [...]
Labor Day week on Lake Vermilion offered up a mixed bag as the Lake Vermilion water temp has started its downward slide. We got out yesterday and found the water temp at 56 degrees in Big Bay, two degrees lower than the day before. So how did we do?

Late July fishing on Lake Vermilion had its ups and downs last week, with walleyes beginning to spring back from a middle of the month tougher bite. Musky fishing wasn't spectacular, but there were fish seen on numerous spots and several near misses made for some excitement. There were a few sub 40's caught. As has been the case, the most consistent bite has been [...]
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.

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 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 [...]
