Location: Ontario, California		That's why I'm hoping to get the information... so I can avoid the lake at any time around a tourney.

it does not get crowed like it did a few years ago. the fish are still there just not near the pressure as before.

Location: Ontario, California		I don't disagree... just don't want to fly 1800 miles to go fish the lake the week leading to, or the week of a tournament.

Still looking for anyone that knows there are or aren't tournaments in August.

Location: Ontario, California		Jerome... I truly appreciate the offer. Vermilion has a special place in my heart (my first ever Muskie... A 50"). I'd love to get back there but I really enjoy breaking down offshore structure and Mille Lacs sets up nicely for me. One of these years I'll make it to a M1st outing... Thanks again for the offer on a seat with you.
