Fleuve Saint-Laurent

Flowing through Québec, Canada, Fleuve Saint-Laurent is a river that suits anglers willing to walk a bank. Most fish at Fleuve Saint-Laurent hold in identifiable lies — the same eddies, drop-offs, and shaded undercuts produce trip after trip. After heavy rain, Fleuve Saint-Laurent can colour up and rise quickly; that's often when bigger predators come out to feed, but wading conditions get dangerous.
