Location: Minnesota | Who would you guys recommend for a guided trip to Vermilion? I know a lot of the guys spend time on Mille Lacs, but I will be up on Vermilion for a week with the family and I would really like to get on some fish.

Location: Ft. Wayne Indiana | You can't go wrong with Chad Cain or one of his guides, Luke or Hamernick.
They have that place dialed in |

| Either of the Shumways (Bruce or Bill) are offering Vermillion. |

Location: Athens, Ohio | Ace put me on the biggest fish of my life, I'd be remiss in not recommending him. Tom, from what I hear, is a real hoot. m |

Location: Lafayette, IN | Tom and Ace know the entire lake from east to west as well as any two guys you will meet. They are great guys too. Chad certainly knows the lake well too and has a reputation for getting on big fish. These three would be my short list.

| I heard Chad will not be on the Vermilion in July but will be the rest of the season. If you get on his calendar, you will not be disappointed. |

Location: oswego, il | All the above mentioned are great giudes and worthy. MuskyTom is a character for sure, Ace lives right there year round and Chad is a die hard. I am not as familiar with the rest but know from others they are very good. |

Depending on the time of the trip, and date booked by the guides mentioned. Josh would be my first choice, just getting his feet wet at guiding, but knows the body well, then probably chad then tom. All three good choices, Luke and Jason are great guys know them well,, but the 3 above have more time ove the Big V and have better overall patterns. Chad will be gone early summer due som famliy obligations.

Location: Minneapolis | I've fished with Dave Swenson twice on Vermilion, and I highly recommend him. He's low key and a real good stick. He didn't win the PMTT there last fall by being a slouch! His web site is http://muskieguide.homestead.com/
In the two days (separated by a couple of years) my friend Bob and I fished with Dave, we boated four muskies up to 49" and lost another at the boat.
I'm sure all the other guides mentioned are good, but I can personally vouch for Dave. |

Location: Lake Vermilion Tower, MN | If you still haven't made up your mind. You can check out www.lakevermilion.com
They have a list of local guides that are as good as any listed above, they just don't get much press.
Have a great trip!
