Sometimes interesting “non-fishing” things happen around here. Take the case of Bailey the Irish Settler. She was on her way to Red Lake with her family when they stopped at Bobby’s Corner for gas. Being a very skittish dog she decided to bolt and ran off. Posters were put up but after 6 weeks things were not looking very good for Bailey. About a week ago Brent and Tracy (who run the Bayview Hotel…..official watering hole of the Musky Madness Week) were at their cabin in Favell Bay (about 2 miles south of VBL)…..this is a boat in access cabin…no road, where they caught a glimse of Bailey. It took a week of leaving her food and a blanket on the deck to calm her down enough to be able to catch her. Once on a leash she seemed relieved (albeit a bit shell-shocked) to be out of the wilderness…..and away from the wood ticks (she was covered!) Good job Brent and Tracy for the rescue effort! 6 weeks alone in the bush would be scary.
What else?
So how many turtles does it take to fill up a log?
Based on early reports for the “Scott Stroupe” group, the fish are really biting!
It’s conjoined twins week at the lodge….or as we like to promote it…”Joined at the hip Madness Week”. Wade and Terry relaxing with their siblings…..
Nobody likes to miss out on the Sunday night fish fry…..Jersey get’s herself in line.
Stay tuned for a fishing report from the Scott Stroupe group…….coming soon.
If you like GREAT fishing, hospitality and affordability, Vermilion Bay Lodge is highly recommended. I have been making the trip to Vermilion Bay Lodge for the past 10 years and have never once been disappointed. If you like great walleye, northern, musky and trout fishing, this place should not be overlooked. The fishing has been excellent… no matter what time we went. Gordy and Susanne are wonderful hosts that will make you feel right at home. Check it out – I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.
