Controlled exploitation zone (zec) administering a 34 km segment of the Escoumins river for sport fishing. This is a salmon river and there is a forest road running alongside the river allowing easy access to the salmon pools. Fishing is done by wading. In general, the pits are quite long and shallow. The zec is divided into four sectors, three of which are subject to quotas and we have listed 66 pits.
The ZEC de la Rivière-des-Escoumins is a "zone d'exploitation contrôlée" (zec) in the municipality of Les Escoumins, in La Haute-Côte-Nord Regional County Municipality, administrative region of Côte-Nord, in Quebec, in Canada.
