Lac Anvossis, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Set in Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean, Lac Anvossis is a Quebec water. The surroundings are northern bush. Roughly 10 hectares: a morning covers one end, an afternoon the other. The bank runs about 2.5 km all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. Start from Chibougamau, 94 km down the road. Normandin follows at 101 km, then Chapais at 102 km. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Anvossis

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Public occurrence data for Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean names northern pike, Atlantic salmon and lake whitefish. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Lac Anvossis responds to conditions more than to tactics.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 16°C and January near -18°C on the long-run figures. Everything is compressed into the middle of the year. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early May. The lid tends to go about early May and return around mid November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. At Lac Anvossis the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Failing this one, try Lac Viloche, 1.6 km away. Signs at Lac Anvossis carry more weight than any list.
