Onslow

More than twice the size of TX

Almost the size of Alaska

Much closer to home

Land of lakes, rivers, bogs and extreme whitewater

The Laurentian highlands are as expansive as NC/SC

Char and Atlantic Salmon runs in the north

Brook trout, striper, and the usual YP, Walleye, SMB elsewhere.

Low hanging fruit close to home.



Seeing the massive cataracts and falls on the Caniapiscau would be interesting, but probably deadly. It's a pity the great falls of the Churchill river have been diverted for energy used.

Another south slope St. Lawrence tributary.



I'm going within the next 10 years.  Not sure where, but I'm doing an extended river trip.

The problem with Quebec, is that there is sooooo much water. And not all of that water is productive, and there won't be any info on that water. Guides are your best bet until you learn the lay of the land. Getting around is tough was well as the are not many roads once you head north. Float planes are the norm. There are several rail lines that will drop you off in the absolute middle of no where.

I fished a river near Lac Edouard in July one year. Beautiful stretch of river between two lakes, plunges, runs, pools. Didn't catch a thing. Spoke with the guide at the lodge, and he said the brookies move out of the rapids and into the lakes in the summer and the only way to catch them is trolling spinners.
