As I mentioned in an earlier Blog, Lake Vermilion is a place that I go to relax and get away. Last Thursday I headed up to do some fishing with a few of my close friends. The fishing was fair, but the time with friends was exceptional. Many old stories were retold and some new lasting memories were made.
Roughing it in the woods. Marv’s trailer deep in the woods near the lake.
Not a lot of neighbors
Scott Taylor and Tom Montgomery two long-time fishing buddies get their sleeping quarters ready. The trailer only had room for two
The other member of our fishing party, Marv Lahti. He doesn’t like being photographed.
But, with my paparazzi like determination I got this quick shot of the elusive one driving his new boat. Marv is a retired Eden Prairie firefighter, he is also retired from many years at Northwest Airlines. This is his first year with all 52 weeks off, last year he only had 48 weeks off and was challenged to get all of his recreational needs met.
Lots of little Walleyes like this one were the rule of the day and got released for another time when they get bigger. Tom did catch a 3 pounder a little later in the day.
