A fly fishing specialist shop in Rimouski, QC, praised as one of the best in eastern Quebec for its fly-tying materials, knowledgeable staff and fair prices.
L'Atelier du Moucheur is a fly fishing store in Rimouski, and its reviews are almost entirely five stars. Anglers describe it as one of the most complete fly shops in eastern Quebec, well worth a detour, with rods, reels and a very large range of tying materials.
Fly tyers are especially enthusiastic. One traveller who visited fly shops right across Canada ranked this one at or near the top for variety, quality and value, and liked that many materials come in smaller quantities that suit beginners. Others call the inventory of tying materials hard to beat.
Staff are consistently described as passionate, professional and generous with advice, whether you're new to the sport or experienced. Customers mention help with salmon, trout and saltwater species such as mackerel, flounder and cod. Online ordering and postal delivery work well, and one customer had a broken fly rod section replaced smoothly.
The one complaint, from several years ago, involved a rod warranty replacement the customer felt was worth less than the original. Otherwise, the main advice from reviewers is to leave plenty of time to browse.
