Believer Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Hi All, I'm planning on going to Cameron Lake this weekend and was wondering if anyone had some tips on where to start for walleye. Thanks in advance. Edited July 3, 2013 by Believer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Same as all kawarthas, weedlines! I forget the name of the bay on the south side of the lake, but there is a marina/campground at the back end of it. I have connected with walleyes on the deeper weed edges of that bay, using orange mister twisters and a slow drift. Hope that helps, good luck!

fishindevil Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Too late the pike are there already !!!! Grrrr .... And one was caught in sturgeon lake about 2 weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Too late the pike are there already !!!! Grrrr .... And one was caught in sturgeon lake about 2 weeks ago Well that's not good news, but no surprise either. I guess I'd better start teaching my son how to fish pike, because muskies are gonna be slim pickins by the time he's my age. I'm not much help on cameron, haven't fished it in years. However, my son and I caught 5 keeper walleye and 3 over slots on another kawartha lake this morning pulling haarnesses along main lake weed edges. Slow troll 1.3-1.5mph. We caught a few bass and crappies as well. S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshS Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 I've fished Cameron a few times this year and have a friend with a place on the burnt who fishes it every weekend. Have not seen a pike yet... fingers crossed. I don't concentrate on walleye but we get a few incidentals. There's a few obvious weedlines you'll see there and weed humps that should have some wally's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishindevil Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 The bay is called sackett bay !!!!! To the left of the bay there is a nice point and a steady dropping shoal !!!! Great spot !!!! Up near Boyd island in the north end is good for eyes too !!!!! Cheers & good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooked_On_Bass Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Too late the pike are there already !!!! Grrrr .... And one was caught in sturgeon lake about 2 weeks agoIndeed, they are.

Hooked_On_Bass Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Believer, I'm not a Walleye guy, but have caught a number of them this year while bass fishing. Most have been on crankbaits. All along (or over) weed lines in 8-14 FOW. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshS Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Pike will devour the Cameron musky population!! Very unfortunate but inevitable. Please do not release them if you catch them. Maybe we can get another 10-15 years of decent musky fishing before it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Kinda makes me think twice about the guys musky fishing at cameron last year I went, telling me how much they wished they had pike there to eat. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooked_On_Bass Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Well, I've fished Cameron for over 10 years and this is the first Pike I've caught/seen, FWIW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Believer Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hey Guys, Thanks for all the info. Worked out to be a pretty good weekend. 2 Small muskies and a large mouth on spinner baits on the north west side in 5 to 8 feet of water and a nice size small mouth and an eater walleye on an X rap working the south end. For the most part the fish i were marking were in 20 - 25 feet of water though. Must have been hiding from the weather. Anyway thanks again guys, always cool to fish a new lake.
