The contest ran Sunday through Thursday with an evening break for the Wednesday night shuffleboard tournament at the Bay-view Hotel. There wasn’t a day that a musky wasn’t entered! The “Boyes” group in cabins 5 & 6 did particularly well for their first time at VBL…a 44 incher caught on day one by Trevor Benner.
Musky Madness Week next year will be September 7-14. Already half the cabins have been booked for next year, so if you are contemplating joining in on the fun the time is now!
Kevin Black’s 46 1/2 inch release on the last day of the contest (Thursday) was Kevin’s personal best muskie “ever”. Little did he suspect that the next day he would top that fish with an exceptional 50 inch Eagle Lake muskie, caught in the same spot and on the same lure! Congratulations Kevin and to everyone else that caught a personal best during a very successful Muskie Madness Week.!
If you like GREAT fishing, hospitality and affordability, Vermilion Bay Lodge is highly recommended. I have been making the trip to Vermilion Bay Lodge for the past 10 years and have never once been disappointed. If you like great walleye, northern, musky and trout fishing, this place should not be overlooked. The fishing has been excellent… no matter what time we went. Gordy and Susanne are wonderful hosts that will make you feel right at home. Check it out – I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
