Fishing Lac Aumance in Outaouais, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Aumance is one of the Outaouais waters in Quebec. It stands 248 metres above sea level. A pocket of water where every cast reaches cover. It is a small entry by Outaouais standards.

Also within reach: Lac Apollo after 0.7 km, Lac Ganga sits 1.5 km out, Lac de la Vieille after 1.8 km, Lac Emma sits 1.8 km out and Lac Saphir after 2.2 km. This one is safely inside the county line.

• Where to Fish on Lac Aumance

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Records held for Outaouais cover pumpkinseed, yellow perch, smallmouth bass, rainbow smelt and Iowa darter. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. At Lac Aumance the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.
