Stay at Wright's Camp on Gullrock Lake and enjoy fishing five different lakes abundant in trophy walleye and northern pike, while staying in one of our comfortable modern housekeeping cabins. Excellent service, top notch equipment, free golf, and the friendly atmosphere are just a few reasons Wright's Wilderness Camp is your best fishing vacation choice.
Situated on Gullrock Lake, approximately 250 miles north of International Falls, and only a few miles south of the town of Red Lake, Ontario, Wright's Camp is ideally located close to the amenities you may need, as well as the remoteness and superb fishing desired in a fishing getaway. With sturdy Alumarine boats featuring full floorboards and new 20 hp Yamaha motors, as well as our larger 'outfitter' style upgrade boats with 50 hp motors, our equipment will keep you safe and comfortable while on the water. All our cabins are furnished with full kitchens and three piece bathrooms, with a beautiful view out every window.
Wright's Camp is host to a system made up of five lakes, all accessible by water. The camp is located in the channel that connects Keg Lake and Gullrock Lake. This optimal location on the system provides shelter from the main bodies of rough water. The current between the two lakes makes for excellent fish habitat that is right out our back door. The chain of lakes have many different structural and depth differences which help to support a variety of fish. The lakes accessible by water from the camp are Red Lake, Keg Lake, Gullrock Lake, Ranger Lake and Two Island Lake. Here is some info on the differences of the lakes.
The majority of our guests fish mainly on Gullrock. There are several sunken islands and long points with a maximum depth of about 60 feet, making for good fish structure. Gullrock has very little for dangerously shallow structure, and the rocks with may cause problems are well marked with buoys. Gullrock is about 10 miles long and is fairly easy to navigate even for a first timer.
Wright's Wilderness Camp, was originally built by Wilfred Wright tin the early 1950's on Gullrock Lake in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, five miles south of Red Lake. He cleared the land and built several cabins before he sold it to the Retzky family who renamed it Gullrock Lake Camp. In 1980, Mike and Gerry Weaver took over, renaming it Weaver's Wilderness Camp, and owned and operated it for twenty- three years before selling it to Lee Wright, whose great uncle was none other than the original owner, Wilfred Wright.
Wright's Camp is host to 12 fully modern cabins ranging in capacity from 2 to 12 persons. All cabins have a view of the lake, feature 3 piece bathrooms, and are equipped with propane fire places or wall heaters. Kitchens are fully equipped with fridge and freezers, propane stove/oven, microwave, coffee makers, pots, pans, dishes and utensils. Each cabin is accompanied by a Weber grill, and the use of propane cylinders can also be arranged.
Keg Lake is located just around the corner from camp. Fewer guests fish Keg Lake due to several shallow water reefs as well as major underwater structure swings. The maximum depth on Keg is about 60 feet with some deep holes holding cold water coming from Red Lake. This tends to keep the water cooler than that of Gullrock Lake. The temperature differences are an asset in finding active fish on any given day.
Ranger Lake is at the furthest point on Gullrock from the camp. Ranger is a fish sanctuary which is closed until mid June, which provides walleye adequate time to spawn. Some of our regular guests will fish Ranger Lake when the sanctuary opens and again later in the season when the water has warmed up. Ranger is a very shallow and weedy lake about 2 1/2 miles long and has a maximum depth of about 10 feet.
Two Island Lake is a small lake off of the south end of Gullrock. It is an easy lake to navigate and has only two dangerously shallow spots, one near the mouth on the Gullrock side, and one in the middle of the lake that is marked. Two Island has a small amount of structure but can produce good fishing at certain times of the year.
While Red Lake is just upstream from Keg, most of our guests do not fish there. It is about 7 miles from camp and is very large in comparison to Gullrock. Red Lake is about 25 miles long and has depths that exceed 150 ft. Red Lake is fairly easy to navigate as long as you stay on the main traffic areas. It has many very open areas which can become dangerous in rough water.
