Mentorships

What is the women's mentorship?

The women’s mentorship is a holiday of initiation to salmon fishing, to progress and to share among each other. This year, the trip was held on the Escoumins River. 

See schedule here 

In 2023, the women's mentoring program was organized in collaboration with Les Chèvres de montagne. Les Chèvres de montagne is Canada's largest women's outdoor community. So we're very proud to have been able to join forces with this formidable and dynamic team. For the last edition, we got together for a women's weekend on the Upper North Shore at Rivière des Escoumins.

The aim of the women's mentoring program is to offer you a unique experience, far removed from the pressure to perform, in a friendly, all-inclusive atmosphere.

 

WHO IS THE WOMAN MENTORSHIP FOR?

The Women’s Mentorship is for all women who wish to learn how to fly fish and salmon fish. The activity is for women who have never touched a fly rod as well as for new salmon anglers (5 days of fishing or less) who are not yet comfortable fishing alone.
