Havent been out on this lake since early ice how r ppl doing out there? Dont need spots just would like to hear some of the catches if your willing to share? Thanks.

I've been out a couple of times, pretty much so-so. Caught a couple crappies, nothing big,8 to 10 inchers. Pretty rough getting on the lake, almost need a monster truck, and 4x4 for certain.

Looking to try this lake for some crappies once ice is it (if it hasn't already) Can you get between the North Bay and South bay easily?  and is it the right place to bring the daughter for some crappie and sunny action?

Going through the channel won’t be an issue unless the water is high. The shallower upper lake will warm quicker, so you may not need to go through there anyway.

I have been looking and i see people mention paying $5 to use an access at a resort, anyone know where that is located?

It's in the narrows between the north and south lake right at the bridge.

Thank you. We bought our first boat this spring and hoping to get after some sunnies and crappies here soon. Will be a change from our winters being spent on Mille Lacs chasing the eyes.

      Monday was my worst day of winter fishing on Vermilion in the last 4 years.  Caught only one 14" walleye in nearly 8 hours of fishing.  Missed two other bites and was marking very few fish.  Maybe the fish were taking Monday off after a big weekend.   No more water came up on the ice under my house.  Think it was because I haven't banked snow around it for a couple of weeks so the bare ice around the house is getting very thick.  I measured 38" of ice under my house and the Ion barely made it through even with the extension installed.  Needless to say I banked around the house this time.  Another lesson I learned today is don't drill holes if ice is frozen on your blades.  I did that on one hole and it didn't center properly and drilled at an angle on the edge of the opening.  Hope I can correct the location and angle on my next trip up.   Not much change in the surface lake surface conditions.  The drifts may be a little higher and are definitely harder.  There are still a few bare ice spots on the lake.  Very little activity on the lake today.  There are about 3 dozen houses from McKinley Park out to Birch Island.  Another person pulled there house off today, and I am sure many more will pull theirs off this coming weekend.  Only 13 days left of walleye season.

      Great looking food. So far not much of a game and I thought the halftime show was worse I've seen.

      They’d be just as happy to inherit the boat Dad took them fishing in, wouldn’t they?
