The Baie du Nord Territory (Gouin Reservoir)

The Territory Created at the end of the '20s, this enormous reservoir with an area of over 9,200 square km, has become, over the years, the largest basin of yellow walleye in Quebec. Not only is there an abundance of fish, but their quality is also outstanding. Our two strategic locations and the eight chalets available for rent provide access to the best parts of the area, i.e. those which are the most difficult to reach, except by seaplane. These areas therefore have the lowest fishing pressure. All the chalets in this territory have running water and shower facilities. A camp manager is present on a permanent basis at each of the locations to respond to your needs and ensure your total enjoyment of the fishing trip; a radio link between each site and the air base guarantees your safety at all times.

Angling Value Baie du Nord is indisputably one of the best locations for fishing yellow and blue walleye on the continent. As well as being extremely abundant, the walleye can easily grow to a weight of 3 kg (7 lbs). However, the average weight of catches varies between 1 and 2 kg (2 and 4 lbs), and even the novice fisherman can expect to reach his/her fish limit. The many structures of the bottom in the flooded coves also shelter huge pike, some weighing over 15 kg (30 lbs) and 50" in length. In fact, fish of this size are caught frequently. However, the average weight of these pike varies from 3 to 5 kg (6 to 10 lbs). Fishing is excellent here, from the start of the season to the freeze-up !
