If you’re looking to stay at the Island Bay Lodge the way to book a reservation is through VRBO. There you will be able to see the calendar for booking availability and enjoy all the features VRBO has to offer.
Sitting by a campfire
There is a proper way to enjoy a campfire, although its not a serious topic as I don’t know of one single person who doesn’t enjoy a fire. For anyone who loves the great outdoors a campfire is a beautiful thing as well as a necessity. People have been building campfires since the beginning if recorded history.
Fishing the Manitowish chain
From the Island bay Lodge you will have access to 10 lakes to either tour, water ski, wake board or go fishing on. The touring and the fishing is what I love and the Manitowish chain is one of the best for both.
How to catch a Muskie!
The quick answer is with lot’s of prayer. I personally believe that you cannot catch a Muskie but that you trick them and they catch themselves. I’ve been Muskie fishing for years and never caught a Muskie. Not even close! I’ve heard that it takes 10,000 casts to catch your first Muskie. Wow!
Who is John Dillinger?
In a previous post I mentioned legends, folklore, lies, stories and rumor has it when writing about catching a Muskie but when you mention John Dillinger to anyone who lives in Manitowish Waters it seems that the stories never stop and so much time has passed that Mr. Dillinger has now reached the status of folklore and legend. Good for him.
Walleye – the perfect fish
The Walleye is the perfect fish for many reasons and the main reason is because they taste so goos. Deep fried, baked or on the grill this beautiful fish is the favorite to catch among pros and amateur fishermen alike.
