We’ve had a stretch of super hot (for us) weather that has seen some lake temperatures in around 80 degrees! Fortunately this weather has dissipated and water temps are back down around 75 on the surface. A much better condition especially if you are trying to release big fish. The two week forecast shows highs in the low 70’s and overnight temps around 60 degrees…..perfect!
On the fishing front walleye continue to be found in various depths but the 20-25 range seems to be the most consistent, especially early morning and evening hours. The Wesling gang did well on jigs and leeches while others had luck with either minnows or crawlers. A few muskies were caught and the report is that the weed beds are at their prime for the season.
For some reason this past week I neglected to collect fish pictures from our guests so I’m left holding the blog bag……no photos. In it’s place I present to you a sunset collection from Eagle Lake…

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!
