Pourvoirie de la Baie des Anges

Pourvoirie de la Baie des Anges, formerly known as Pourvoirie du lac Kakuskanus, is a family-run outfitter in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, set in a bay of lac Kakuskanus (nearly 11 km long), south of the réservoir Pipmuacan, deep in forest country north of the 49th parallel. It opens up nine lakes, two of them exclusive — lac à l'Ours and lac Blanc (a maximum of 2 catches per stay on lac Blanc) — for brook trout (speckled trout), lake trout (touladi) and the lacmou/moulac hybrid; lac en Huit, lac Plongeur, lac Caribou and lac de l'Étang round out the territory. Beyond fishing, the territory is hunted for moose and black bear, and the outfitter also runs all-inclusive guided pontoon fishing on Kakuskanus. Two chalets are available to rent — the chalet de la Chute (3 to 10 people, with its waterfall just below) and the chalet de la Plage (3 to 8 people, with a sandy beach that is ideal for families) — both with a full bathroom featuring a ceramic shower and hot water, a working propane kitchen, a wood fireplace, an outdoor BBQ and fully solar lighting. One dog per chalet is welcome at no extra charge. The owners take the environment seriously: solar power, a fleet being switched to more fuel-efficient motors, and careful waste management. Moose, black bear and American marten are among the wildlife you may spot on the territory.
