June 9 Big Lake closed!


Lac Curières or Big Green lake as we know it was closed by the provincial government biologist June 9. Apparently the limit of 1500 (?) was either taken or would been shortly. Regardless once again a very short season of 3 weekends.

Other lakes also closed include Bessons, Bienvenue, Cindy and Dreux. Little Green just below us and several others are still accessible for reasonably good fishing. Boats are on Little Green Lake under lock and chain.

Fishing was phenomenal the weekends of late May, early June. One member (J. Moore and boys) fished the opening weekend with slow results, and did not see many boats. One of the reasons for the lack of boats may be that camping was not open because of health regulations set up by the government to combat Covid 19, ie no camping or assimilating in parks. Larry McGowan and I were fortunate to have two weekends without the normal onslaught of boats from the camping although locals were visible each morning at the dam launching. It was different the last weekend , June 7,8,9 with at least 15 boats visible each day. None the less we had two great trips, got lots of fishing in and even managed a few days of work.
