Fished the North end this weekend and alot of the fish caught were spitting up food. Although not an expert, they appeared to be fresh water shrimp. Do fresh water shimp exist in Mille Lacs and did anyone else experience the same thing?

Also caught my first perch of the year. Definitely a jumbo.

I couldn't tell you for sure but I do know they are prevailiant in the duck pond I hunt in up near Fergus Falls.They get on the dekes and you have to scrape them off to laod into the bags.

fished the north side, looked like those bugs that were hatching a week ago (if you look at past posts you can find the type-some type of fly)

      15 foot Boat registration question

      By leech~~ · Posted

      Yes, MN is very difficult to register anything that had a title or a original registration card. I've ran into the same issue with old snowmobiles, and motorcycles it suks. Hope he can get it done over in Wisconsin for you. Good Luck.

      My fishing trip started June 1st and it's been tough!

      By Raven77 · Posted

      Thanks.  Very similar to my tactics.  I usually haven't started using lead core until August and then we are fishing in 30 FOW.  I will give it a try in 20-25'.

      2023 Lake Vermilion Fishing Reports

      By SkunkedAgain · Posted

      It's amazing how much the water level is dropping. It looks like we've been getting enough rain to keep the forest hydrated but not enough to fill the lake.

      2023 Lake Vermilion Fishing Reports

      By JerkinLips · Posted

      Finally made it up to Vermilion this summer.  Between opening our place in Soudan and entertaining the wife and dog I only made it out on the lake 1½ hours Wednesday evening and 3½ hours Thursday morning.  In those 5 hours all I caught was a 10" perch.  I had 3 other light bites and that was it.  The wife caught two 8" eyes Wednesday and didn't get out Thursday morning with me.  Vermilion Fuel and Food didn't have rainbows, and their chubs were very small and pike suckers were too big (they did have a river-mix that looked good that I should have tried).  I did see a few mayflies on the surface so I will blame all of those factors on my lack of success, although my lack of fishing skills factored in also.  Many others fishing around us and I only saw one other fish being landed so maybe I wasn't the only one struggling to catch fish.   Water temp was 65°F in Stuntz Bay and the water level is running 13" lower than last year at this time as shown below.  Good luck fishing and enjoy the lake.  It was beautiful out there.
