• Where to Fish on Lac a Deux Queues

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Species logged across Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout and walleye. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Lac a Deux Queues fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -16°C to 17°C. The middle months are generous; the ends are demanding. Ice-out usually falls in late April, and the weeks after it fish hardest. The lid tends to go about late April and return around mid November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. Time your trip to Lac a Deux Queues by conditions rather than dates.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Public mapping records no formal access here, so plan for a walk and soft ground. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Some banks are open only from a marked point. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Lac a la Truite at 0.8 km is the sensible second choice. Check the position at Lac a Deux Queues before loading the car.
