Wondering about the ice thickness? An auger extension would be handy, but half of what might be ice is actually frozen slush and snow.
Conditions for sledding are good but things get a bit soft and warm in the afternoon. Jason and Holly on a classic 1968 Polaris Charger.
Some perch and whitefish action in front of the lodge.
The evening before Cal Ritchie and I checked out a nearby spot where the walleye were biting. Once you open up a hole things get a bit slushy. Plenty of air holes are starting to be visible around the lake…..sure signs of spring melt.
Not much longer till we start seeing bare road.
Still some time to put in your ice out guess!
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.
