TEAM
Our staff members are known for their loyalty, friendliness, and experience and will see to your comfort and safety throughout your stay. In fact, most of our staff members have received first-aid training.
They will be your hosts, fulfilling your accommodation needs and your sporting and recreational expectations, in French or in English. At the Saint-Jean Lodge, your entire day will be devoted to angling with a guide who will ensure your safety and also share with you the secrets of the river. Nighttime, of course, is your time to relax.

Gaétan Bond
Gaétan’s 32 years as a guide have made him a man of experience! He’s even led expeditions to the mythical island of Anticosti but it was the St-Jean that won him over. Talk to him and you’ll learn a lot.

Roger Patterson
Roger has been a guide at the Lodge for the past 25 years. He is also the resident handyman. He’s actually the one who chops the wood for your cabins so that you can relax in the evenings in front of a blazing fire. If you happen to light one, be sure to enjoy it!

Allen Morency
As a guide at the Lodge for the past 15 years, Allen has watched a lot of water flow and seen many salmon jump, but he’s especially happy when there’s a catch at the end of your line! Just like our other guides, he’s always nearby and ready to lend a hand.
