Ice fishing - Mountain lake

Join us for guided ice fishing on a frozen lake in Mont-Tremblant. Our guide will set you up in a heated pop-up tent where you’ll fish for rainbow and brook trout. This tour is for anyone who wants to try ice fishing in a comfortable setting—beginners welcome, no experience needed.

Our guide meets you at the lake and walks you to a heated pop-up tent already set up on the ice. Inside, the tent stays warm with a portable heater while you fish through holes. Our guide shows you how to use the gear, bait your hook, and recognize when a trout bites. We also have an underwater camera attached to one of the fishing lines—you can watch on a screen as trout approach and bite your bait.

You’ll fish for rainbow trout and brook trout in a 27-hectare stocked lake with a maximum depth of 11 meters. The fishing limit is 5 trout per adult (children under 18 count toward their accompanying adult’s catch limit). All caught fish must be kept—no catch and release—to prevent introducing disease to the lake.

Our lake sits in a valley surrounded by pine and mixed forest. Ice fishing season runs from late December through mid-March, depending on ice conditions. This is a low-intensity activity—you’ll be sitting in the tent most of the time, with short walks to and from the parking area.

Ice fishing is one of Canada’s popular traditional winter activities— with hundreds of thousands going ice fishing each year. Some provinces have thousands of lakes open for ice-fishing and some have only a handful. In Quebec we have a few hundred.g, Our tour uses modern heated tents and gear, but you’re still experiencing the same core activity that families across Canada have enjoyed for generations: drilling through ice, dropping a line, and waiting for a bite out on a frozen lake.

Who is this for

This is an easy, low-intensity tour suitable for beginners. You’ll be sitting in a heated tent for most of the tour. Physical effort is minimal—short walks on packed snow from parking to tent (approximately 50 meters), and handling lightweight fishing rods. No previous fishing experience needed. Our guide provides all the instruction.
