Regulations
A valid Quebec sport fishing licence is required at every spot on this page, and fishing for ouananiche (landlocked salmon) on Lac Saint-Jean requires the additional Aire faunique communautaire access permit. Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon and Parc national des Monts-Valin charge a daily Sépaq access fee; the zecs charge their own daily fees for fishing and camping. Check current conditions before heading out.
