Late today, May 8 2019, the ice was officially “gone” from Vermilion Bay…
Now, I know several people have been celebrating their “win”, but as in life reality will win out in the end. Sorry, but if you didn’t guess May 8th then better luck next year.
Announcing this year’s winner: Now I’m sure this individual spent much time researching his prediction, and the results are now obvious. Congratulations to Jim Kalitowski from the big smoke of Minneapolis, MN! Close second were the following individuals:
Congratulations to all those who participated! I think this was the biggest number of people taking part. Interesting that the first three guesses I received were for April 29 (a total of 5 guesses for that date alone). I will say Jim’s winning guess was the only one for that date. Research? Good luck? Bullshit? You be the judge…
Several posts ago I ran a bit of a contest to identify 4 species of waterfowl shown in a picture. The winner was Jeff Rheau with the correct guess of Swan, Blue Heron, Mallard and Merganser. A coffee mug awaits you as well as Andy Lewis who was the only one to identify the swan as a Tundra Swan.
To wrap things up here’s a picture of some siding stain going on by new camp guy Hugh “G. Rection”. You will be seeing a lot of him this summer. Also a few gratuitous early spring fish pictures from past springs……to wet your appetites!

This is a first class resort located on Vermillion Bay on Eagle Lake. The cabins are very clean and well kept. The boats are new with new motors and are in great shape. The owner will also clean your fish for you after your day on the water. Make no mistake the fishing on Eagle Lake is world class.
The Lodge is owned by Gord and Susanne Bastable who will make you feel welcome and before you know it you feel like family. They are the best of hosts. The atmosphere is low key and laid back leading to a great vacation.
This is my 19th year of enjoying the hospitality of the lodge and i can’t think of going anywhere else on Eagle Lake.
