Discover Pourvoirie Broadback

The outfitter

Pourvoirie Broadback is an all-inclusive fly-in fishing camp tucked deep in the Cree territory of Eeyou Istchee, north of Oujé-Bougoumou and 100 km north of Chibougamau. The camp sits on Lac Assinica (93 km²), at the heart of the Réserve faunique Assinica (8,885 km²): you have the water entirely to yourself, in true boreal solitude. Fishing is the star here — abundant walleye and northern pike, plus giant brook trout in the river. Every package begins with a night at the Auberge Capissisit in Oujé-Bougoumou, followed by a roughly 30-minute (80 km) Air Tamarac floatplane flight to the camp. On

site: new propane-heated cabins (2 people per cabin), electricity, running water, hot-water showers, American plan (3 meals a day, shore lunch), an experienced guide, a boat with a 25 hp motor, and Starlink / Wi-Fi communications. Three packages of 4, 5 or 8 nights. The camp's roots reach back to the 1950s, when anglers fly-fished for brook trout on the river; the season later lengthened thanks to the exceptional walleye and pike fishing of Lac Assinica.

Its story

The history of Broadback Outfitter dates back to the 1950s. During those pioneering years, activities were primarily focused on fly fishing for brook trout along the river. Over the years, the outfitter's offerings expanded, and the season was extended onto Lac Assinica due to the abundance and quality of walleye and northern pike fishing. Located on the vast Eeyou Istchee Cree indigenous territory, in the Assinica Wildlife Reserve sector, the outfitter is situated 80 kilometers north of Oujé-Bougoumou and 100 kilometers north of Chibougamau. Accessible exclusively by floatplane, the establishment has always offered visitors the privilege of staying in the
