• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Nothing formal is recorded here: no ramp, no car park, no marked path. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. If the gate is shut, Grand lac Carre at 0.5 km is the nearest alternative. Confirm access to Lac Rognon locally before you travel.
