10 Fishing Outfitters in the Laurentians

A Laurentians fishing trip can mean a riverside cabin, time on the Baskatong Reservoir or a getaway built around trout lakes. These 10 outfitters offer different combinations of fishing waters, accommodation and activities, giving you practical details to compare before choosing a stay.

If you are planning a road trip, check the final access arrangements: some individual lakes and accommodation options require travel beyond the main arrival point.

1. Forêt Baera

Near Kiamika, on the edge of the Outaouais, this family-run outfitter centres its activities around Lake Berneuil. Six trout lakes hold lake trout, brook trout and rainbow trout, with another lake offering pike. Anglers can fish with lures or flies, or visit for winter ice fishing. Nine eco-friendly, self-contained cabins and rustic campsites provide several ways to stay.

2. Club Notawissi

Near Sainte-Anne-du-Lac, this exclusive-rights outfitter offers fishing on 70 lakes.
