Fishing
- Walleye,
Northern Pike, Speckled Trout
and Lake Trout
Many cabins are located on various bodies of water and are used for fishing as well as for hunting.
If you have chosen an outpost cabin, we will give you a map indicating the best fishing spots. If your cabin is only accessible by plane, our air transporter will fly you there, safely.
You have the possibility of flying to remote lakes, otherwise inaccessible, where the fishing is simply excellent.
| Here are a few
outpost camps to consider : Pike and walleye : (by plane or ATV) Sloe lake is known for its abundant walleye and excellent pike fishing. The cabin can accommodate up to 8 people and offers much more than the basic accommodations, such as running water, inside shower and toilet, separate rooms and fully equipped kitchen. Forecast also offers excellent walleye fishing. It is a cabin for 4 people with equipped kitchen, patio door, one separate room and an outhouse. Ceizur lake is known to inhabit monster pike and walleye. You must however content yourself with a picture because we oblige catch and release for walleye over 3 pounds. It is now accessible by truck. Kerrigan lake should be your choice if you are looking for a lake that's never been fished and are hoping to catch nice pike. From Kerrigan you can hike to Rondo. |

All the lakes mentioned above have cabins to accommodate you but there are several other lakes accessible for you by portage or ATV. For those of you who enjoy ATV's, you will find pleasure in combining both fishing and riding. It is however restricted to ride on the site of the main lodge.
The different lakes accessible either by portage, ATV or both are the following : Lake Patten, for pike and walleye ; Rachel, Rondo and Bunny, for pike ; Smutt, Picard, Jean Pagé and Three Sisters, for speckled trout. Refer to the map for their location.
Given the comfort of the cabins at Wapus, more and more families are present. While you initiate some of the kids to the secrets of fishing, other members of the family might prefer the heated and in ground pool on those hot sunny summer days. In August you can even take a day off from fishing and enjoy picking some of those wild fruit.

| In order to maintain a productive territory we must preserve and plan ahead. Preservation is what ensures a continuing propagation, which obliges us to apply catch and release on certain lakes. Walleye, pike, lake trout and speckled trout are the four most abundant fish on our territory. | ||
