great portage trip over to Clear Water lake today. I wouldn’t recommend the river route as the water levels are low and the beavers have been prolific. In one of the previous posts we showed you the deep lake trout bite results from the West arm. On Clear Water the lake trout were shallow….18′ – 40″. We caught well over a dozen nice lake trout on Clear Water lake and some very nice pike. Of course, VBL is the only lodge with boats on Clear Water.
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.
