Fishing at Etang White Fox, Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Côte-Nord, Quebec, is where Etang White Fox sits. The bank is 63 metres above sea level. It runs to roughly 16 hectares — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. There is roughly 1.8 km of shoreline here, which is a short walk end to end. It is low-lying compared with other Quebec water we list. Saint-Augustin is the closest place, 104 km off. For a city, St. John's is 542 km off. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.

• Where to Fish on Etang White Fox

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Public occurrence data for Côte-Nord names logperch. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Etang White Fox fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 14°C for August and -12°C for January. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. Winter locks it down, and early May brings it back. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near late November in autumn. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. Plan around that when you fish Etang White Fox.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Petit lac a Bouleaux sits 1.9 km off and takes the overflow. Check the position at Etang White Fox before loading the car.
