Tam Guy Lake Fly-Outs (Boat Cache)

Wallace Lake Lodge & Outposts, run by the Hnatishin family (James, Michele, Joe, and Paul), has earned a strong reputation among Manitoba fishing travelers, with the majority of reviewers rating their experience highly. Guests consistently describe the operation as well-run and attentive, with the owners and staff receiving frequent praise for their hospitality, local knowledge, and willingness to point guests toward productive fishing spots. The lodge maintains a small, intimate atmosphere, capping the main lodge at around 16 guests, which contributes to the sense of privacy and quiet that many reviewers appreciate.

The accommodations — both at the main lodge and the outpost cabins on lakes such as Obukowin, Carroll, and Craven, as well as the Gammon River — are widely praised as well-equipped and comfortable, with full kitchens, hot showers, quality boats and motors, fish finders, and clean, modern interiors. The outpost experience in particular draws strong reviews for its remoteness and wildlife. Fishing at the outpost lakes, which see little angling pressure, is described by several reviewers as outstanding, with walleye catches described as plentiful. The Gammon River is also singled out as a notable fishery.

The one notable concern comes from a reviewer who fished Wallace Lake itself in September and reported very poor walleye fishing, with several in their group catching little to nothing. Locals on the water attributed the decline to the lake having been netted out in prior years, and even lodge guides expressed surprise at any walleye being caught. This reviewer's advice was to enjoy the surroundings but temper fishing expectations on Wallace Lake proper, and to consider day trips to nearby lakes like Windsock. This destination appears best suited for groups of friends or repeat anglers seeking a remote, self-guided outpost experience with solid amenities, particularly those targeting walleye on the fly-in lakes rather than Wallace Lake itself. It may also appeal to those who value wildlife, trails, and quiet wilderness atmosphere alongside their fishing.
