Striped Bass

Fly Fishing

Overview

Join us at Camp Bonaventure for an unforgettable season in pursuit of striped bass along our magnificent Gaspé coastline. Whether you’re a seasoned or novice angler, this experience promises adventure, tight lines and breathtaking scenery!

Fishing

Located along the picturesque Gaspé Coast, La Baie-des-Chaleurs offers one of Eastern Canada’s most exciting and accessible striped bass fisheries. Known for its warm waters, clear estuaries and breathtaking coastal scenery, this region provides an ideal setting for anglers of all experience levels. While tides move gently across vast feeding flats, schools of stripers hunt, offering our anglers an exceptional fishing experience.

The Skiffs

Step onto our shallow-draft skiffs and experience striped bass fishing at its most thrilling. Designed to glide quietly through tidal channels, estuaries and sand bars where stripers push bait and explode on the surface, our skiffs put you right where the action happens! With a clear, close-to-the-water perspective, every cast counts and every strike is unforgettable. This is an immersive, sight-fishing and technical way to explore la Baie-des-Chaleurs. It’s the perfect adventure for anglers who want excitement, precision, and a good time.

The Bay Boat

Set out and enjoy striped bass fishing in style and comfort. Spacious and stable, the bay boat allows you to access prime fishing spots along La Baie-des-Chaleurs’ productive shoreline and further into open water, where schools of bass gather and thrilling strikes are always possible. The bay boat is ideal for anglers of all skill levels with plenty of room to cast, move, and enjoy the stunning coastal scenery. An explorers’ dream day on the water chasing larger striped bass and seeking adventure.
