Tenkara in Canada's Beautiful Forêt Montmorency Danièle Beaulieu

People always talk about the wonderful fishing destinations in the United States like Colorado, Montana or the Adirondacks, but we have a secret place here in Quebec, Canada and it's called Forêt Montmorency. It belongs to the University Laval and is the largest teaching and research forest in the world, totaling 412 square kilometers of pure fishing pleasure with two lakes and three rivers. Before coming to the Forêt Montmorency, you will want to stop in the beautiful city of Quebec. You will be going back in time by visiting the majestic Chateau Frontenac followed by a walk in the streets of old Quebec. Then you will

certainly stop to visit the Citadelle of Quebec and the Plains of Abraham. There are so many popular things to see and do in the city. After falling in love with Quebec City, you will be heading out to the Forêt Montmorency for some quiet time and to fish in the wild. There too, you will fall in love, again. The Forêt Montmorency started introducing tenkara fly fishing in their activities last summer and it was a success. They are repeating the same formula this year, but with some new rods made exactly for the kind of rivers they have.
