Activity description
Spend a pleasant day enjoying one of Quebec's typical winter activities, ice fishing, by renting a fishing hut on the Saguenay Fjord!
It is on the ice covering the Saguenay fjord in the heart of winter that you can rent a fishing hut in Saint-Fulgence, less than 30 minutes' drive from Saguenay. During the day, you will have 4 holes drilled in the ice to discover the pleasures of ice fishing in Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean: it is a popular winter activity in Quebec, so it would be a shame to miss out during your stay!
When you arrive, you will receive all the equipment you need for ice fishing on the Saguenay Fjord (2 fishing rods, 2 sets of groundfish lures, plus a small caplan bag and bait), so all you have to do is try your hand at this winter pastime while enjoying the region's sublime surroundings. You will be entitled to a total of 5 catches per person (including caplan, redfish, cod, turbot and 'unicode' eel), which you will need to leave to freeze outside your cabin so that they remain safe to eat. With room for up to 4 anglers, your propane-heated hut will protect you from the cold outside during your breaks in the day.
A great experience to enjoy with family or friends, renting an ice fishing hut on the Saguenay Fjord will give you a great day full of unique Quebec memories!
