Attach the float to the main line about 3 feet above the spoon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cast your rig as far from the shore as possible and let it drift in place. If the wind or current drifts your rig back toward the shore, recast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are the fish active? Change your lure and technique!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the fish are active on the surface\u2014if you see them jumping out of the water or their backs breaking the surface\u2014you need to get active too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Replace your rig with a small silver spoon or a floating wobbler that mimics a minnow or a rainbow smelt. You can also use a streamer if you\u2019re a fly-fishing enthusiast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If necessary, clip a few small round weights (split shots) onto the line a few inches in front of the lure to make casting easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cast directly into the school of lake trout and retrieve the lure quickly with sharp, jerky pulls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best spots for wading:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Les \u00e9pis de Saint-G\u00e9d\u00e9on<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The municipal pier at M\u00e9tabetchouan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Lac St-Jean Motel near Desbiens(For motel guests only)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The municipal pier at Chambord<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The mouth of the Ouiatchouane River in Val-Jalbert(only at the start of the season)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The harbor at the Roberval Marina<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>La Pointe Scott \u00e0 Roberval<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Chute \u00e0 Michel section of the Ashuapmushuan River in Saint-F\u00e9licien until June 30 (quota-based fishing thereafter)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The First Falls, Second Falls, and Fifth Falls on the Mistassini River in Dolbeau-Mistassini until June 14 (quota-based fishing thereafter until July 31)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Chute des P\u00e8res on the Mistassibi River in Dolbeau-Mistassini<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Chute \u00e0 la Savane on the P\u00e9ribonka River in Sainte-Monique<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Boat fishing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Boat fishing techniques vary depending on the time of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Surface trolling near the shore<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In May and June and in late summer, landlocked salmon can be caught by surface trolling near the shore using light tackle or a fly rod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommended lures:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Wobbling spoons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Floating wobblers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Streamer-style flies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The best fishing spots:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Desbiens<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chambord<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Val-Jalbert<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Roberval<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mashteuiatsh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saint-Henri-de-Taillon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>P\u00e9ribonka (\u00cele Boulianne)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vauvert<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alma Islands at the entrance to the Grande-D\u00e9charge (late summer only)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Deep-water offshore fishing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the lake water is warmer in July and August, lake trout can be caught offshore in the mid-water column, ideally using a downrigger and a fish finder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trick to finding lake trout? Look for schools of smelt! Where there are smelt, there are sure to be lake trout!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The known deep spots during this period are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Pointe-\u00e0-la-Savane Trench off the coast of Pointe-Taillon<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Mashteuiatsh Trench extending from the Ashuapmushuan River<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The Desbiens Trench extending from the M\u00e9tabetchouane River<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Schools of smelt can also be found all over the lake. All you have to do is locate them with a fish finder and fish over them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best lures to use:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Wobbling spoons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Floating or sinking lures (if no downrigger)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tube flies and large streamers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Downrigger fishing technique:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attach the main line to the weight and lower it to the depth of the smelt schools, which is 12 to 18 feet in Lake Saint-Jean. Attach a wobbler, a floating plug, or a tube fly preceded by a \u201cflasher\u201d to the end of the line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can add a second line to the main line\u2014a \u201cspool line\u201d\u2014which is about the length of the rod. The spool line is attached to the main line with a swivel and positions itself at half the depth of the sinker. Attach a thin silver or copper spoon to its end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fishing techniques without a downrigger:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Light casting with a sinking plug<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heavy line with a spoon or a floating plug<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fly fishing with a heavy sinking line and a tube fly or a large streamer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limits on taking and possession<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On Lac Saint-Jean, the daily catch limit and possession limit are two lake trout per Quebec fishing license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do you have a fishing permit?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To fish in Lac Saint-Jean, you must have a Quebec sport fishing license and a \u201cpermit to fish in the Lac Saint-Jean Community Wildlife Area\u201d (access permit).
