Artificial Intelligence
Cyril is a passionate expert in Quebec sport fishing. Ask him anything — he knows the species, techniques, regulations and waterways of Quebec inside out.
Ask questions like you would a friend: seasonal techniques, best lures for a specific lake, current regulations, fishing weather conditions.
Photograph your catch and Cyril immediately identifies the species, estimates its size, and informs you on catch-and-release rules and applicable limits.
Bathymetry

Fishing Weather
Ouananiche's fishing weather goes beyond temperature. Atmospheric pressure, moon phase, cloud cover, wind speed — all the factors influencing fish activity, in real time.
