Fly fishing
Come and discover one of the most beautiful rivers in Northwest Quebec
Your stay
From Montreal, you'll take a flight to the village of Kuujjuaq, a northern village in Nunavik, located on the banks of the Koksoak River, near Ungava Bay. From there, a Twin Otter aircraft will take you to the Leaf River Lodge camp. It's from this flight that the adventure truly begins. You'll soar over the breathtaking landscape, with the chance to observe flocks of willow ptarmigan, migrating caribou herds, and the vast expanses of the wilderness from low altitude.
Once you arrive at camp, you can finally take the time to breathe in the fresh northern air. The rest of the trip will be divided between salmon fishing, hiking, and, above all, wildlife viewing. The main attraction of the area is the mass caribou migration. We will be able to travel long distances by boat on the Rivière aux Feuilles to explore and discover this territory. As night falls, we will always be on the lookout for clear skies, as this is one of the best places in the world to see the famous Northern Lights.
Saumon atlantique
The Atlantic salmon of the Rivière aux Feuilles, in the heart of Quebec, is a true natural treasure. This river, renowned for its crystal-clear waters and wild landscapes, is home to a population of salmon that embark on an impressive migration each year. These silver-scaled, streamlined fish ascend the river's powerful currents to spawn, in a spectacle that is both mystical and fragile. Thanks to sustained conservation efforts, the Rivière aux Feuilles remains a prime location to observe the resilience of this iconic species. The Atlantic salmon of this region embodies the raw beauty and ecological richness of Quebec, a symbol of the health of its aquatic ecosystems.
Brook trout
The brook trout of the Rivière aux Feuilles is an emblematic species of this remote region of Quebec, where the cold, clear waters provide an ideal habitat for this refined trout. Recognizable by its glossy body speckled with red and yellow spots, the brook trout is a discreet, elegant fish, often difficult to spot, preferring deep areas and fast-flowing currents. This vigilant and cunning predator thrives in pristine environments, far from pollution, and testifies to the richness of the local aquatic ecosystem. In this preserved river, the brook trout is more than just a species: it embodies the harmony between nature and wildlife, a precious symbol of Quebec's biodiversity.
Lake trout
The lake trout of the Rivière aux Feuilles is a true legend of the cold, crystal-clear waters of this region of Quebec. Also known as "grey trout," this predatory fish impresses with its size and power, inhabiting the depths of the area's lakes and rivers. Its silvery body, slightly mottled with grey, and its piercing eyes make it a formidable predator in its natural habitat. The lake trout is particularly prized by sport fishermen, who seek it out for its fighting spirit and rarity. A specialist of icy waters, this fish is a testament to the pristine ecosystems of the Rivière aux Feuilles, a place where wilderness remains untouched and where every encounter with this predator is an unforgettable experience.
