• Tackle & Baits

  No access rule appears in what we hold. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Mapping is blank for access, so scout the approach before committing the car. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Lac Tasialuaruq sits 3.2 km off and takes the overflow. Confirm access to Lac Quurnguup Tasialunga locally before you travel.
