Sometimes interesting “non-fishing” things happen around here. Take the case of Bailey the Irish Settler. She was on her way to Red Lake with her family when they stopped at Bobby’s Corner for gas. Being a very skittish dog she decided to bolt and ran off. Posters were put up but after 6 weeks things were not looking very good for Bailey. About a week ago Brent and Tracy (who run the Bayview Hotel…..official watering hole of the Musky Madness Week) were at their cabin in Favell Bay (about 2 miles south of VBL)…..this is a boat in access cabin…no road, where they caught a glimse of Bailey. It took a week of leaving her food and a blanket on the deck to calm her down enough to be able to catch her. Once on a leash she seemed relieved (albeit a bit shell-shocked) to be out of the wilderness…..and away from the wood ticks (she was covered!) Good job Brent and Tracy for the rescue effort! 6 weeks alone in the bush would be scary.
What else?
So how many turtles does it take to fill up a log?
Based on early reports for the “Scott Stroupe” group, the fish are really biting!
It’s conjoined twins week at the lodge….or as we like to promote it…”Joined at the hip Madness Week”. Wade and Terry relaxing with their siblings…..
Nobody likes to miss out on the Sunday night fish fry…..Jersey get’s herself in line.
Stay tuned for a fishing report from the Scott Stroupe group…….coming soon.
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.
