August off to a great start!

Just a quick blog update. As noted briefly in our last blog, August started out on a fantastic note with some great walleye fishing near weed beds and some fish already transitioned to deeper water structure. The week of August 8-15th, saw the return of summer with lot’s of clear skies, plenty of HEAT and of course light winds. The walleye bite slowed during the day, but most mornings and evenings remained extremely productive. More walleye continue to transition to deeper water now with plenty of fish still relating to weed edges but many guests are reporting fish as deep as 38′. Todd Pinegar and son Jordan, worked weed beds around 12′ and had excellent action early in the week, then abandoned the weeds with their floating jigs/minnow rigs and drifted 38 fow, catching several nice walleyes in the low to mid 20″ range. As of this writing, Todd’s boat had over 300 walleye for the week. The heat (upper 80’s with a heat index of near 100) is supposed to stay with us a couple more days, then much cooler temps for next week, so we expect the “all-day” walleye bite to be much better.

We have had some sporadic internet issues in camp so I’m behind in getting a few pictures on the blog, but will try to get a few more posted here in the coming week.

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.
