Opening Day On Cameron Lake

Cameron Lake is part of the Oba River system, giving you about 6,000 acres of lake fishing and several miles of river fishing.

If you are looking for an outstanding Walleye fishing experience, here's a camp you'll want to put on your bucket list.

• Comfortable accommodations
• Reasonable prices
• Secluded
• Only 5 cabins
• Rocky shoreline and beautiful sandy beaches

Check out my Bigger Fish To Fry Adventures and join me. There's room yet this summer.

 Got your Ontario Fishing License?

Ontario Pleasure Craft Operator Card

Do you have your Ontario Boating License? Do you know whether or not you need one?

In Ontario, there's no special boating license required to operate a powered pleasure craft as long as the boat operator holds a Pleasure Craft Operator Card, issued by Transport Canada. The Pleasure Craft Operator Card is required for all Canadians operating a powered watercraft. The course and the exam can be taken online at BoaterExam.com

If you are a non-resident who is renting a powered watercraft in Ontario, bring any boaters licenses or certificates you may hold from your state or country (not required but helpful). Then ask the person or business you are renting from to certify that they have checked you out on the boat and motor you are renting.

If you are a non-resident and operating your own powered watercraft or renting one in Ontario for more than 45 consecutive days, get your Ontario Pleasure Craft Operator Card. You'll need it.


And while you're at it, get your Ontario Fishing License online too.

Just in Time for Opener--How to Fillet Fish

Here's another great video on How To Fillet Fish by Fillet Fish.

I'm still very fond of Russel Mckay's Walleye filet method but this one is also great for those of you who do not want to cut through the ribs.


I've still got some Fishing Adventures open in July, August and September. And, I'll fillet your fish for you. Join me.

Ice Fishing At Its Best

Yes, I know March is behind us. And we are all looking forward to soft-water fishing. 

But this video by Wintertrekker inspires me even though I'll have to wait until next season. What a great way to celebrate late ice in Northern Ontario!

And what a great year it has been for late ice.

I still have some Fishing Adventures open for 2013
