Fishing Lac Aube in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Aube belongs to Côte-Nord, Quebec. The bank is 492 metres above sea level. The water measures roughly 9 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. The town to know is Forestville, 101 km out. Beyond it, Saint-Honoré at 112 km and Saint-Fulgence at 112 km. Within a short run: Lac Amyot (0.9 km), Lac Dumais at 1.3 km, Lac Boiteau (1.4 km), Lac Lebel at 1.5 km and Lac Klaus (1.7 km). The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Aube

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Work Lac Aube in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -19°C to 16°C. The fishing year opens late and shuts early. Expect a solid lid for months and a thaw around early May. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about early May until roughly mid November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. That shapes the year on Lac Aube.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. The nearest alternative is Lac Amyot, 0.9 km out. Treat Lac Aube as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
