Tommy cod fishing at  Juneau-Simard's

The Juneau-Simard fishing outfit was founded by two 'peradians' who belong to a three-generation tradition of ice-fishing here in Ste-Anne .Here are a few fishing tips from them.

 

The tommy cod (called 'poulamon' -pronounced 'poolamon'- here)  lives from 3 to 8 years, produces approximately  8600  eggs per lay, and weighs  45 gr in average; the male's lenght is in average 150 mm, the female 180.  It roams the west coast of the Atlantic, from  Labrador to Virginia, and takes to many rivers to lay eggs. Drawing above is about 1/3 of actual size.

In every cabin there's a wooden pole, over the fishing hole, to which are attached several fishing lines. To each line is anchored a weight and two hooks. The weight must be at the right distance from the bottom . Just follow these simple instructions :

  • let the weight fall to the bottom
  • raise the fishing line about half an inch from the bottom
  • only the hooks, then, will rest at the bottom
  • the bait  (small cubes of bloody pork liver or raw shrimps) must hide the hooks.
  • repeat this operation often

Keep your catch fresh by letting it freeze outside the door of your cabin; that way its flavour will be preserved.
