Fortunately Dean has had plent of experience. You could almost call him the “eagle whisperer” judging by how calm this eagle remained while in the kitchen at VBL.
While they seem as thick as fleas, it is not part of any bag limit up here in the Great White North. Unfortunately a number do succumb to “Eagle vs transport truck” encounters over the winter months……especially when road kill deer are used as bait. This particular bird was picked up along the highway last winter, and after some legalities will now spend it’s summers indoors at Vermilion Bay Lodge. Dean was gratious enough to tone down the lime green beak and feet that he came with.
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.
