Overcast skies today, with light air out of the SSW and the barometer holding steady. The productive water at Lac Aber will be around the shallows early and the drop later. A hard day on paper; the night edges the rest. Scale down and fish slowly. The pre-winter feed makes autumn days generous.

You will find Lac Aber in Côte-Nord, Quebec. The shore lies 1.5 km out. The water measures roughly 7 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. Ground here is low by Quebec standards. For a base, Baie-Comeau sits 3.2 km out. It is 232 km to Saguenay, the nearest city. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.
Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Open biodiversity records for Côte-Nord list logperch. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. Read Lac Aber before you fish it and the day goes better.
Long-term averages put July at about 16°C and January near -14°C. A hard winter is normal, and the thaw brings a strong few weeks. After early May the shallows warm and the fish move up. Open water usually runs from early May until about late November. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. At Lac Aber the season follows that pattern closely.
No access rule appears in what we hold. Mapping shows parking within 230 m. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. The nearest alternative is Lac Leven, 0.6 km out. Confirm access to Lac Aber locally before you travel.
