Coin du Moucheur Inc (le)
A Québec City fly shop run by a passionate owner, known for quality flies, split-cane bamboo rods, salmon fishing gear and generous advice, though a handful of visitors found him brusque.
What visitors say
Le Coin du Moucheur is a specialist fly fishing shop in Québec City, and most reviewers call it the best place in town for fly gear. It carries a considered selection of rods, reels, lines and waders from the top brands, a range of split-cane bamboo rods and high-quality flies, with a particular focus on salmon fishing. The owner can order in what isn't in stock.
The owner is the heart of the shop. Reviewers describe him as warm, patient and generous with his knowledge, giving honest advice rather than a sales pitch, and even correcting one customer's casting. Beginners and experienced anglers alike say they left better equipped, and one customer had an order delivered the morning after placing it.
It suits anglers looking for personal service they can't get at a big-box store, whether they're kitting out for trout, saltwater or Atlantic salmon, or looking for fly-tying advice.
A small number of visitors had the opposite experience and describe the owner as dismissive or unwelcoming. One recent customer was disappointed that fly-tying sessions advertised on the website are no longer offered, so check before going for that. Stock in store can also go beyond what's listed online.
