There are about a hundred lakes in 5 accommodations sectors:
- Lac Dunbar
- Lac Normand
- Lac Wessonneau
- Lac Tousignant
- Lac Brown
For fishing activities with accommodations, the fishing plan of Réserve faunique du Saint-Maurice is determined in advance and approved by Québec's Department of Natural Resources and Wildlife.
This wildlife reserve has a species that is unique in Québec. It is the kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka), of the same species as the sockeye but confined to a lake. A small population of this species ended up in Lac Normand with the dismantling of the facilities for Expo 67. In the Canadian pavilion, kokanee eggs were used to show the public how the species developed during its embryonic stages. When this species was introduced into Lac Normand, the idea was to provide its lake trout with food. The kokanee managed to find sufficient conditions to meet their needs for feeding and reproduction. Their plankton-feeding ability accounts in part for their survival and maintenance in this habitat.
Catch and possession limits:
- Pike: 3
- Kokanee: 2
- Speckled trout: 7
- Landlocked salmon: 2
- Lake trout: 2
Some bodies of water have more restrictive catch limits in order to preserve fishing quality and the duration of the season.
Period: May 14 to September 6, 2010
