wheatley provincial park

anyone know if the creeks have water? if so anything in them to fish for?
  • I agree ....although he was not talking about Rondeau PP. I prefer the Provincial Parks over the others anytime. Yes, more money, but at least i don't have to listen to my neighbor's conversations etc. I will be there for Labor day, Thanksgiving weekend ( Best Halloween weekend around ), maybe Chili Cook-off, which is mid September.
  • thanks guys, but for the record I FAR prefer wheatley to rondeau. rondeay is way to wide open for me.
  • Rondeau Bay, way better park, 401 to Kent Bridge Rd. (exit 100) with construction on the 401 (what else is new) around an hour and fifteen minutes from Windsor, close to Blenheim/Ridgetown, also our park Wildwood by The Lake click has a few rental lots and is the best campground I've yet to see in our part of Ontario, either a far better choice!

  • going the 19th for a few nights. when are you going? I'm surprised they are up I know the ponds around my house are all but empty
  • yes, water is up this year ..... the premium water sites are actually water sites again. They have been fishing off the bridge, not sure i would (yuk, carp). Maybe we'll see u there

    Where is it??

    If you have to ask, you obviously can't answer the OP's question.
  • the bay at rondeau is an entirely different beast and yes very good for fishing. I like the bay on rondeau much better than wheatleys creeks but the sites themselves are nowhere near as nice. WAY less bush and privacy. Also if im going to go the extra 30 to rondeau I tend to just do an extra hour and go to pinery (easily my favorite parks our side of Toronto) Thanks for the info though.
  • I see nobody has answered yet and I can't either but I was at Rondeau last week and kids were pulling a lot of pan fish out of the bay.
    In my opinion Rondeau is a superior provincial park ,the beach goes on for kilometres as well as the biking,plus kayaking/canoeing in the (sheltered)bay.
