• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Lac Coucou at 2.9 km is the sensible second choice. Treat access at Lac June as something to verify.
