April 11, Ice Out Update…..

IMGP1305

Seems like winter will not release it’s grip and the forecast isn’t much better.  The picture above is from this morning, Thursday April 11, 2013.  Last year was mostly open water and no snow.  What a difference a year makes!!

But that doesn’t mean the fish are not biting……….as shown by Holly with a nice whitefish caught in front of the lodge.

Other things are best done with these conditions, such as getting the portage boats ready for the spring.  Here on Clearwater Lake the boats are now ready for the first guests…

Some ramp repairs, motors on, let the fishing begin!  This will be an exceptional year for shallow water lake trout……..here and on Eagle.

The boat on Caribou Lake gets a fresh supply of gas and a motor swap.  Wonder what the smallmouth are doing right now?

Testimonials

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.
