Chapleau Fishing - We've Covered All the Angles!
The lakes and rivers in the Chapleau area provide anglers with a variety and abundance of fish. Species include walleye, northern pike, lake trout, splake, yellow perch, whitefish and smallmouth bass.
The best time to fish is in the spring and fall, although any truly dedicated fisherman can be successful throughout the year.
See a list of area lakes and native species.
Before you start out, make sure to obtain a copy of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry Fishing Regulations.
