Chaudiere Lodge - Upper French R.

[Pangle]

Hello

I'm thinking about booking a 3-4 day trip in mid-July to Chaudiere Lodge on the upper French river. From my research I have heard it is a great place with great food. I will be going with a buddy and 3 kids (5 and 6 yrs olds). I'm not too concerned with the accomodations but more so with the fishing. I hear fishing can be tough at times but also fantastic. We would mainly focus on walleye, bass and pike to keep the little guys busy. Anyone with info on this area would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Pete

I used to work there for a few seasons , fishing will be good ( daily limit of 2 Walleye / angler )

Food and accommodations are top notch ..

not much to do for the kids though ..

we spent the may long weekend last year, and have booked with Steve again for the same time.

Hit and miss fishing at that time of year as it is the opener. Last year was tough, but past season regulars had much more success the prior

year.

According to Steve, the time you are looking at is much better fishing.

 

As for the food, it is top notch, excellent service, and very comfy cabins.

 

We are returning not just for fishing obviously.

I know that I am forbidden from mentioning his name again, but there is a Fishful Thinking episode or two from that lodge. If you email Charlie (from the shows website) he will email you the details back.
