Lac aux Cailloux Fishing in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  This water sits in Côte-Nord, Quebec. It lies 61 metres above sea level. Around 52 hectares of surface means several distinct areas to work. A shoreline of some 3.1 km keeps the choices simple. It is low-lying compared with other Quebec water we list. Havre-Saint-Pierre lies 55 km from the water. After that come Gaspé at 114 km and Perce at 147 km. This one is safely inside the county line.

• Where to Fish on Lac aux Cailloux

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Across Côte-Nord, recorded fish include logperch. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Fish Lac aux Cailloux where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -12°C to 16°C. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. Open water usually runs from early May until about late November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. Anyone fishing Lac aux Cailloux regularly works to that calendar.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. If the gate is shut, Lac Nelson at 1.9 km is the nearest alternative. Nothing here settles the position at Lac aux Cailloux for certain.
