About

Pourvoirie Chibougamau is a walleye and northern pike fishing destination on a European plan, set on a peninsula between Lac Laganière (8 km) and Lac des Canots (13 km), at the gateway to the Nord-du-Québec and the Baie-James region, in zone 29. Its lightly pressured lakes are known for their abundance (house records: a 13 lb walleye in 2018, a 25 lb northern pike in 2017). Two fishing formulas: fishing on the adjacent lakes, and "adventure fishing" in an expedition format that opens up around thirty little-exploited lakes reachable by ATV (anglers bring their own vehicle). Lodging is in comfortable chalets (2 to 8 people, joinable), built in 2002-2003 and carrying a 4-star comfort-and-quality rating: equipped kitchen, running hot water, shower, wood heating and solar power. Self-catering (European plan). Owners: Patrick Bolduc and Sonia Bellerive.
