01/22/2020 06:54PM Lonnie Johnson runs the portage and also guides on Trout. Lonnie is a good guy and will offer up some advise at the portage, on fishing and rocks. Permits are easier to get than say Basswood. However I wouldn't wait until May. Weekend and holiday permits can go fast. I don't know for sure but some week day permits might be easy to get late. |

01/22/2020 05:54PM I spend a lot of time on Vermilion and plan to make trip to Trout this spring. Memorial Day week. We'll rent a boat with 25 HP, and go in for the day on our own...no guide. Are the permits to Trout hot? Can I access a permit in May (even middle of May) to make sure day we choose is a good weather day? I've seen the portage guy work...do we know who that guy is? email address? I know...it's a big lake. Not too worried about the fishing part. We'll find rock piles or work the shores for bass... |
