Bob Dekker and his son Jackson flew from New Brunswick for two days of trout fishing and reminiscing about past trips to Clearwater Lake back when Bob was much younger. The last day of May and first day of June did not disappoint.
A familiar and welcomed sight for those who have ever done “the creek”.
…not always big, but often plentiful and very tasty…..
…The perfect setting for a shore lunch of freshly caught lake trout…
…Not all the action takes place below the water……
On the last night in camp they take the opportunity to try the same shallow trolling techniques near the camp…..and with some big results. Jackson with a 30 inch lake trout!
…and a good release. A great end to a short trip. Thank you Bob and Jackson for the pics!
If you’re looking for an outstanding vacation spot for the serious fisherman or a family get away you should consider Vermillion Bay Lodge on Eagle Lake, Ontario Canada. We have stayed at many lake resorts over the years, but none offer the simple pleasures of this one. The lake is large enough and holds enough fish for the most adventuresome fisherman and yet easy for local family fishing for young children. Bring your own boat or use one of the aluminum boats (20 hp) at the lodge. Boat dockage is well protected from the wind and allows easy access to the water.
What sets this lodge apart from most others is it is always clean, well kept with lots to do including paddle boats canoes, bon fires in the evenings and a just plain friendly atmosphere.
