Here’s an interesting photo from a read more at few years ago, back in early June.I remember my wife Diane and I were fishing a few kilometres from V-Bay Lodge.Suddenly the sky went dramatically half dark and white with a harsh wind and distant rumbling thunder.I suggested to Diane that we should reel in and quickly get to shore to seek shelter from the rapidly gathering storm.I turned the boat around and began racing back to the lodge.At just about that time Diane’s hat was picked up and thrown in the lake.We stopped and looked around but couldn’t find it.Again we started racing away. The air temperature dropped about ten degrees and hail began to fall…..followed by freezing rain. This was our most extreme weather experience on a lake.I passed a couple of other guests boats as we reached Gull Rock.We tied the boat up at the dock and walked into our cabin and waited for the storm to pass.I had to wonder how a storm like this effects the fishing?

On behalf of the Boyes Group, I would like to pass on our sincere thanks for hosting the Muskie Madness Week and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at VBL and had a great time!! This was our 7th year on Eagle Lake and we have stayed at a few other lodges but VBL takes the cake hands down! You can definitely count us in for next year. I’m happy to see you post some of my pics, they turned out well. Thanks again Gord for a wonderful week of fishing and your stellar hospitality, you run a first class operation, we look forward to seeing you next year!
