Catching up…..in camp

Well so much for being more diligent in getting the Blog done, eh? Lot’s of shady excuses to offer though….camp is busy, the girls arrived for their 5 week summer visit etc. The best one however, and it’s really not even an excuse, is that our internet (via satellite) has been experiencing some “issues” andContinue Reading

Summer is heating up….

Although the title refers somewhat to the weather, as it does continue to be a little on the warm side here, it mostly refers to the fishing. The walleye have been biting at an absolutely torrid pace this week and the same can pretty much be said for the northern too, including at least twoContinue Reading

Transition time

In many regards it is just that. On a personal level, the transition relates to the recent return of the girls to the U.S. after a wonderful five week stay in camp. Lot’s of memories and good times with their camp friends again this year. Certainly sad to see them go, but I know theyContinue Reading

Fourteen down, four to go….bear hunting on deck

As it always does, another season is flying by with us beginning the fifteenth week of our eighteen week operating season. With so much of the season past already, you might think that it’s time to put things on “autopilot” and cruise through the last four weeks. Unfortunately that’s just not the way it worksContinue Reading

Trout fishing…

“Rainbow” Trout that is. Chicago sports fans may remember left handed pitcher Steve “Rainbow” Trout, formerly of the White Sox and Chicago Cubs and who also played later in his 12 year major league career with the Yankees and Mariners. As a life long Cubs baseball fan, I remember Rainbow Trout as a key memberContinue Reading

MIA?? Shows underway

No. Not really missing in action, just taking some time off from blogging and focusing on matters here at home. We trust that everyone’s new year is off to a great start, and with February right around the corner, some of you no doubt, will start thinking about your upcoming trip to camp. (like usContinue Reading

Winter returns

Wow! Starting to feel like NW Ontario around here lately….no, not that cold but crazy weather swings in very short time. Just a week ago, it was 60 degrees, raining hard, and all the ice and snow in the area was gone. Less than a week later we have more snow on the ground thanContinue Reading

Almost Spring and Shows are Over!

Which is a great feeling on both accounts to be honest. Really looking forward to the arrival of Spring and some warmer temps and it’s good to have the show season for another year behind us. We generated a little extra business from each show we attended this year so we are looking forward toContinue Reading

Tick, tock, tick, tock…… waiting on ice out

as time SLOWLY passes waiting for ice out. I’m  joining you this morning from the Trillium hotel and restaurant in Ear Falls where we have stayed the last couple of nights trying to patiently await ice out. Patience is a virtue, right? It also happens to not be one of my stronger ones, especially whenContinue Reading

Still waiting….on ice out

Well I was hopeful that my next blog entry would be done from camp and with a “first-hand” update on ice conditions on the North end of Wabby. Those hopes were dashed in a five minute phone conversation with Wayne Clark from Clark’s Northern Lights resort. Wayne got a plane in the water and wasContinue Reading

Peffley's Wilderness Camp is a family owned and operated camp. Dave has been fishing Wabaskang Lake for over 25 years and was previously a guest of this camp for 12 years prior to purchasing the camp in 2005. I am a proud supporter of our military and offer a nice discount during the month of July to our guests who have also served. I have three daughters ranging in ages from 16-21 who spend much of their summer with us in camp and have totally embraced the wilderness experience we offer. They have for years referred to it as the "best summer experience ever".

While rarely necessary on our lake, because I do have a very good working knowledge on how and where to fish on Wabaskang Lake and our portage waters, I will guide groups if asked to. Otherwise, I am always happy to share information with our guests and provide them well marked lake maps so they can start catching fish their first day in camp.

I pride myself on running a very clean and well managed camp with your satisfaction our top priority. Many guests who have fished from this camp for over 20 years, and several more that have fished here for over 30 years and even some over 40 years.
