NaturAventur joins the organizing committee with Devilish Flyfishers, Baroux Outfiftters and Flyfishing Canada for the City of Mont-Tremblant to host the CANADIAN NATIONAL FLYFISHING CHAMPIONSHIP July 6 to 8, 2023.

Mont-Tremlbant Parc (SÉPAQ) imposes fees for road-side access to the Diable River Fly Fishing Sector. Fly anglers are required to pay daily/annual fees to access certain trails along Sector 1 to 4 of the Diable River from Duplessis Road. See HERE for more details and to purchase your daily access pass.

FORECASTED FISHING CONDITIONS:

Week of August 31 (DRFI 3.0): The good amount of precipitation we received at the end of last week did a lot to bring new life to area streams and rivers. The forecast for some cool weather for the coming week is also very welcomed and will greatly improve trout fishing conditions in the region. The flow of the Diable River bumped up over the weekend and is starting out the week hovering around 10m3/sec and so look for excellent mid to full river access across all sections. While the higher water levels will improve fishing conditions in some sections, expect to encounter several deserted stretches of river following a long period of low and warm water conditions resulting in trout concentrating into deeper well oxigenated areas. Consider mixing up your strategies and tactics so as to adapt to the variable terrain. All presentations are effective with additional dry fly action available at these flow levels. Cooler temperatures will be a welcome relief on trout stillwaters. We are seeing a steady pace on our bass and musky outings.

Week of August 24 (DRFI 3.0): Much of the same for the coming week. The forecast for cooler weather for the coming week is very welcomed and should help improve trout fishing conditions in the region. The limited flow of the Diable River is hovering around 5m3/sec and so look for excellent mid to full river access across all sections. With such low water levels expect to encounter several deserted sections of water with trout concentrated in the deeper and well oxigenated areas. Consider mixing up your strategies and tactics so as to adapt to the variable terrain. All presentations are effective with additional dry fly action available at these flow levels. Cooler temperatures will be a welcome relief on trout stillwaters. We are seeing a steady pace on our bass and musky outings.

News and things

OUR WATERS

The DIABLE RIVER is a fairly wide mountain-fed freestone river with a expansive watershed which makes it very responsive to precipitations. During early spring in April and May, water levels can be at flood levels or very high depending on ice and snow melt as well as springtime precipitations. Water temperatures can also be less than optimal for trout this time of year and afternoons on sunny days present the best fishing opportunities. The months June and July offer some of the best water conditions with optimal temperatures and levels throughout the day. Prolonged precipitations do however affect conditions during this period. As water levels drop to their lowest levels in August and September, the features of the Diable river become much better defined and the slower pace of the currents offer the best dry fly opportunities of the year. Early mornings and evenings are the best fishing times but some good surprises are always in store outside these periods. The fishing season on the Diable extends to the end of November for bass and pike with trout on a catch and release only basis from mid-September.

The DIABLE RIVER FLY FISHING ONLY SECTOR consists mainly of long stretches of pocket water, at times deep, with scattered but poorly defined pools. Streamers and nymphs are recommended for the most part with good dry fly opportunities after July. Caddis flies are abundant throughout the season with the most prolific hatches occurring in early June. There is also a good population of stoneflies with the best hatches occurring at the end of June. Mayflies are not in large abundance on the Diable, in terms of numbers and variety. Hatches are limited in size and duration with imitation or attractor patterns being the most consistent performers.

STREAMS AND TRIBUTARIES of the Diable watershed offer good spring-time fishing opportunities for brook trout and also for brown trout. Depending on the amount of precipitation during the season, these can offer good fishing throughout the season.

STILLWATER lakes provide good early season fishing opportunities for surface action on brook and rainbow trout, lake trout and also landlocked salmon on selected lakes. Several area lakes contain good populations of bass, pike, muskie and other sportfish which offers good fishing opportunities during the entire summer months with rising

temperatures. Most can be taken on a fly. Personal boat access on area lakes is restricted and fishing them may require access fees, the services of a professional guide or use of on-site rentals.

Our proprietary DIABLE RIVER FISHING INDEX (DRFI) complements our fishing condition forecasts to help you better plan your fishing adventure. Factors that determine the DRFI include river flow levels, water temperature, weather forecasts, insect hatches and fish activity.
