Hi All, Well since mother nature can’t seem to provide enough cold temperatures to make any ice around here, I guess we might just as well go to work! Looks like another poor winter for ice fishing locally. Although camp is booking up very nicely for the upcoming 2012 season, there are always some spots… Continue Reading

February Blues? Time for shows!
Perhaps February “boredom” would be a better title? The very mild winter and a much slower show schedule this year, apparently is leaving me with too much time on my hands. After hearing from several guests about “keeping the Blog updated” etc., thought I would use a little of this free time between shows to do… Continue Reading
Time flying by….show goes on
Perhaps the whirlwind travel of last week just made it seem even much more so. After leaving “lovely” Northern Indiana for five days on Paradise Island in the Bahamas, I was home for one day to unpack, do laundry, repack and head to Minneapolis for our last All-Canada Show of the season. Even with our incredibly… Continue Reading
Michiana Walleye Association Scholarship Fund
For the past six years we have been fortunate enough to be involved with the Michiana Walleye Association and their annual college scholarship fund the Ukele Memorial Scholarship. In case you missed it on our Facebook page, we donate a FREE trip for two to camp every season ( a $1,400.00 value) to the MWA, and… Continue Reading
March Madness
If you thought from the title, this Blog was going to be about the college basketball tournament, you are wrong. Although the tournament is certainly a big part of March, the title is actually referring to the weather. Even at that, I’m not sure “madness” is the best adjective to describe this weather pattern! We came… Continue Reading
Ice Out Imminent!
Our sources on Wabaskang Lake (notably our friend Tom Williams from Sleepy Dog Cabins), tell us that ice out on Wabaskang is now just a couple of days away. The ice is about half gone now and going fast! For those in the area this means some open water fishing opportunities for delicious lake trout,… Continue Reading
What are those “rock piles” alongside the road?
We’ve all seen them traveling up and down the highways in NW Ontario, those strange looking rock formations that look like little people, ranging in size from tiny to large. I know we get asked the question a lot by many guests who are relatively new to the area and have always tried to take… Continue Reading
There I was…..
back in the wild again, and I felt right at home where I belong. I had that feeling coming over me again, just like it happened so many times before….The spirit of the woods is like an old good friend, makes me feel warm and good inside…. For those not adept at playing name that… Continue Reading
No really, it is Opening Day…
Very mild temperatures (low 70’s), mixed with high humidity sure didn’t make it feel like opening day yesterday however. The walleye sure didn’t mind as cloudy skies, intermittent rain showers and enough wind for a good “walleye chop” on the water made for ideal conditions for opening day and the fish responded accordingly. Excellent fishing… Continue Reading
Still May in Ontario
Although a lot of the midwest (including back home in Indiana) is experiencing weather much more like July with temperatures in the 90’s, I can assure you this week it still feels like May here in Ontario. Lot’s of rain, stronger winds, and today a few snow flakes mixed in for good measure have so… 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.
