More than a fishing trip.
It’s family, friends, and forever moments
Welcome from the Owner
My name is Daryl Weiler, and since December 2023, I’ve had the privilege of calling myself the proud owner of Pellow’s Best Canadian Fishing.
When I first stepped into this role, I worked side by side with Hugh throughout the 2023 season to truly understand the heartbeat of this camp. What I learned was more than just the daily work of running a fishing lodge – I learned that it was a way of life. Every sunrise over the water, every story shared around the fire and every smile from a guest showed me that this is where I’m meant to be.
Owning a camp like this isn’t just about maintaining cabins or keeping boats in the water…it’s about creating an experience. And for me, that experience begins and ends with you, our guests. From the moment you arrive, my top priority is ensuring you feel welcome, cared for, and completely at ease.
At Pellow’s, we’re not just offering a fishing trip, we’re offering a place to breathe, to recharge, and to connect. Whether it’s reeling in the catch of a lifetime, sharing laughter with friends and family, or simply finding peace in the quiet beauty of nature, every detail here is designed with your happiness in mind.
Over the past three seasons, I’ve been fortunate to meet so many incredible people who have trusted us with their vacations, family traditions, and special memories. Hearing your stories, watching friendships grow, and seeing generations come together has been the most rewarding part of this journey for me.
Running this camp is hard work, but it’s work I love. And the reason I love it is simple. The reason is you. Your joy, your experience, and your memories are what drive me every single day.
So, whether you’re a longtime guest returning year after year, or someone considering their very first trip to Pellow’s, I want you to know one thing: this place is for you. It’s built on tradition and shaped by the people who come here. My promise is to do everything I can to make sure your time at Pellow’s feels like more than just a vacation – that it feels like coming home.
I can’t wait to welcome you, share this place with you, and witness the memories you’ll create here.
In Joy,
Daryl Weiler
Owner, Pellow’s Best Canadian Fishing
Meet Reiden
At just 12 years old, Reiden Weiler is already a camp legend in the making. You’ll first meet him at the boathouse where he helps Daryl get your luggage to camp. After that you’ll see him fishing at the dock, playing with the dogs, building a roaring campfire, showing up at your cabin with a delivery, or helping Daryl with camp duties, eagerly learning the ropes of what it takes to run a fishing camp. This kid loves to fish and every week he is fishing with guests or guiding them to secret fishing spots around the island. Always on the move and always smiling, Reiden treats every guest like part of the Pellow’s family, because to him, you are. He’s proof that sometimes the smallest team members leave the biggest mark.
Meet Beau
At Pellow’s, every guest gets the best kind of welcome, a tail‑wagging one. You don’t know, until you’ve met Beau. He is here for his fourth year of duty, greeting guests, checking out your catches, and happily swapping husky smiles for a good scratch behind the ears.
Honouring the Legacy
I want to take a moment to especially thank Hugh Kuttner. Meeting Hugh was the number one reason I chose to pursue this camp, and I quickly realized why so many people have been drawn here over the past 60 years. The guests I’ve met these last two seasons are a reflection of Hugh himself; warm, genuine, and connected to the spirit of this place.
I will always be grateful for Hugh’s guidance and the trust he placed in me to carry on what he worked so hard to build. Taking over this camp has been a journey, and having his support along the way meant more than words can say.
What Hugh created is more than just a fishing camp. It’s a legacy of community, friendship, and the kind of memories that last a lifetime. I’m honoured to continue in his footsteps and to ensure that the spirit he nurtured here continues to thrive for generations to come.
And now, I look forward to welcoming you to the camp, so you too can experience the peace, connection, and joy that Hugh inspired in everyone who came here.
