That may be the best way to describe the past several days… beginning with a helicopter ride into camp on Wednesday, May 15th. With time running out on us and LOTS of ice still floating around on the big lake, combined with NW winds (keeping it in our way), we made the decision to helicopter… Continue Reading

Week 4 in the books….
…and what a week it was! Without question the best fishing week so far of our 2013 season. The guys in week 3 sure had it right when they kept saying: “next week things are really going to take off here”.We have been extremely busy here in camp taking care of guests, which has left… Continue Reading
Busy times at camp….
As we wrapped up the month of June and head into July, we have remained very busy here in camp. All of the girls are here now (except Sara) who will be joining us later this month once her Mom returns from a two week military related assignment. Fortunately (for them) most of the first… Continue Reading
Great season at the half way point!
It’s been a another great (half) season here at camp this summer. We have had some great weather this summer (not too hot), with lot’s of sunshine and just enough wind on most days to create a good “walleye chop” on the water. Fishing in July has been very good overall too which always helps… Continue Reading
Weather cools down….Fishing HEATS up!
The recent string of unseasonably cool weather (highs in the upper 60’s to mid 70’s), in addition to being very pleasant for working and sleeping at night, has also resulted in the lake water temperatures dropping about 8 degrees from it’s July high temp of around 75 degrees. With the cooling water fishing has been… Continue Reading
August is rockin’
Wow! What a start to the month, as the first week of August produced some absolutely fantastic fishing for all species except lake trout which no one targeted. The walleye have definitely put the feed bags on as it was pretty much an all day feed with big numbers of good sized 16-18″ eater walleyes… Continue Reading
Weather warming up…Fishing still HOT!
As we start into the second half of August, it appears summer is trying to make a comeback. After spending the second half of July and early August struggling to get out of the 60’s and 70’s this week’s forecast highs are back into the 80’s possibly approaching 90. Regardless of the air temperatures, the… Continue Reading
Summer revisits…..
Well as predicted, summer has in fact returned to NW Ontario. Last Tuesday, the mercury hit 95 degrees here in camp and most of this week has dealt us a dead calm lake with temps in the mid to upper 80’s with high humidity. Tough fishing conditions in terms of comfort, but still well worth… Continue Reading
Another memorable season
The 2013 season (our ninth), will be as many guests heard me say repeatedly during the season, one that will always be easy to remember. Starting with a last minute helicopter ride into camp as a result of a very late ice out, and enough drama and adversity to keep things interesting all season long,… Continue Reading
Maybe a little stir crazy or just cabin fever…shows underway
Fortunately another show is on the horizon next weekend, as we will be heading to Madison, Wi for the Madison Fishing Expo, February 21-23. With only three shows on our schedule for the entire season and a long six weeks since we wrapped up the All-Canada show in Chicago, it will feel good to get… Continue 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.
