Excellente pêche au doré jaune. J'y ai pris des brochets trophées et des centaines de dorés. Il est facile d'en attraper de 69 cm. J'y suis allé de nombreuses fois en famille et j'ai toujours été ravi de la pêche et des repas copieux. Wade nous a fait découvrir la pêche au brochet et nous en avons pris 20 en deux jours sur la rivière reliant deux de ses lacs. Ils mesuraient entre 86 et 99 cm, avec une belle circonférence.

Des gens formidables, une cuisine délicieuse, des paysages magnifiques et une pêche incroyable ! La pêche en hydravion à son meilleur. Des dorés jaunes à profusion. D'énormes touladis et grands brochets.

J'ai séjourné ici pour ma toute première sortie de pêche en hydravion. Nous étions un groupe de 14. Hébergement impeccable. Nourriture excellente. Les guides sont extrêmement compétents. Ils nous ont permis de pêcher tous les jours. Ils préparent et servent également le déjeuner au bord de l'eau chaque jour. Le lac à truites est immense. Son eau cristalline regorge de dorés jaunes, de brochets et de touladis. Apportez vos leurres de surface Suick Sticks. Les brochets les attaquent avec frénésie. Le meilleur dans tout ça… le prix ! Une affaire en or !

Cet endroit est tout simplement incroyable. On se retrouve coupé du monde, au cœur d'un cadre magnifique. Il faut prendre un hydravion pour y accéder. Le personnel est accueillant, attentionné et bienveillant. La pêche est exceptionnelle. Nous étions huit dans l'équipage. Nous avons pêché pendant quatre jours avec des guides et deux autres personnes à bord. J'ai eu trois guides différents pendant ce voyage, tous plus compétents les uns que les autres ! Le premier était Curtis. Originaire du Canada, Curtis est un expert en pêche au brochet. Il vous emmènera dans des coins de pêche exceptionnels et vous en attraperez comme si c'était un étang rempli d'eau. Et pourtant, le lac fait 50 600 hectares ! Il est d'une gentillesse incroyable et a un cœur en or ! Le deuxième était Wade Jr. Wade a grandi au bord de ce lac, vous imaginez donc à quel point la pêche était agréable avec lui. Il connaît tous les trucs et astuces et il a une foule d'anecdotes à raconter. Il vous fera rire aux éclats et vous apprendra des techniques de pêche incroyables. Il a attrapé un doré jaune d'un coup sec, le ramenant en l'air. Le propriétaire est vraiment serviable et fera tout pour que votre séjour soit inoubliable. Sa femme et son petit garçon sont là aussi, et ils sont adorables. Notre troisième guide était Taylor. C'est le benjamin du groupe, équipé de matériel performant pour remonter le poisson à bord. Il connaît le lac comme sa poche. Il nous a fait découvrir des paysages à couper le souffle : des aigles et une multitude de poissons. Il est super sympa et toujours souriant. Il filete le poisson plus vite que quiconque. Un vrai pro ! Tous les midis, nous déjeunions sur la rive. Je ne savais pas ce que c'était. En fait, on pêche et on nous prépare le poisson pour le déjeuner, avec tous les accompagnements. Le repas est cuisiné sur l'une des nombreuses îles du lac. J'y retournerai probablement chaque année jusqu'à la fin de mes jours. C'est tellement paisible et réconfortant. J'ai eu de la chance que mes amis m'y invitent. Ils viennent depuis des années et maintenant, je reviendrai sans cesse. Vous allez adorer. Réservez un voyage et foncez !

Excellente pêche, camp confortable avec un personnel accueillant. Bien géré, bons guides et bonne cuisine. J'y ai pêché le plus gros brochet (112 cm), le plus gros doré jaune (86 cm) et le plus gros touladi de ma vie, et j'ai adoré chaque journée. Accès rapide par hydravion, personnel formidable et chalets modernes, confortables et bien entretenus. Oui, je suis un client fidèle et je suis ravi de revenir pour l'ouverture anticipée de la saison. J'espère que la météo sera clémente cette année !
