That's a good choice for fishing. I'm not sure how much luck you'll have booking a camp site though considering word is out that the walleye at Calling are biting like crazy so everybody and their dog is looking to go there camping/fishing. Be aware though, in August the walleye are not going to be biting like they are right now. Typically, they start to slow down in early/mid August. You can still catch them but you'll have to actually work for it.
Depending on where you are and how far you're willing to travel, Hilliards Bay campground on Lesser Slave Lake is a great spot to camp. Been there many times and am going again this summer. It's far enough from Edmonton that it doesn't get hit as hard as the places closer to the big city. You can almost always find an open site at Hilliards bay. I don't know how the fishing has been on Lesser Slave this year but it's usually pretty good and there's a decent boat launch at the park.
