Andy August 24, 2013 at 9:16 pm Reply Kurt, It was an amazing trip with beautiful weather the entire week. When Friday arrived we knew the trip wasn’t complete until we brought Gordon a sink full of bull perch. More on this soon. Andy
Teal River August 26, 2013 at 8:30 am Reply Tremendous fish, Shawn and Andy! A 33″ walleye is a pig by anyone, but especially someone who is elderly. Father son fishing at VBL, good for you guys! P.S. Crawler harnesses in 35′ of water?
Andy August 26, 2013 at 12:08 pm Reply Brad, Most of the walleyes in vermilion bay came from 22′-30′ of water on bottom bouncers and crawler. To add to the intrigue, the 27″, 28″, and 33″ walleyes came from 15′ of water while jigging….all within about 10′ of each other and all on the same day….a bright sunny one at that. One night Shawn caught three slot walleyes on a musky depth raider in about 18′ of water over cabbage.
Teal River August 26, 2013 at 9:41 pm Reply Andy: Catching those big eyes on jigs must have been a hoot! When I and my boat partners fish for suspended muskies using large crank baits, we occasionally catch a big walleye or two, rarely less than 25″. Most of these come at night, however. Biggest was a whopping 36″ on a black Cisco Kid!
Gord August 27, 2013 at 9:26 pm Reply Ah Charles…….always a man of few words! Thanks for ferreting out the central idea of this post.
Andy August 28, 2013 at 3:32 pm Reply Gord, I can honestly say that I have never been up to VBL and heard those dreaded words: “You should have been here last week”. Did you get any pictures from George and Mary? I love the fact that George’s mother has been coming up to Eagle Lake since 1953 (60 years)! More fishing pictures to come.
