Lac Beaudoin Fishing in Laurentides, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Beaudoin lies in Laurentides, in Quebec. Boreal forest runs right down to the water. Small at around 9 hectares: two anglers spread out cover most of it. There is roughly 1.5 km of shoreline here, which is a short walk end to end. The town to know is Ferme-Neuve, 91 km out. Mont-Laurier is 106 km away, with Manawan at 109 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Lac Beaudoin

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Reported across Laurentides: pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass and yellow perch. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. On Lac Beaudoin that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -17°C to 17°C. Open water is the exception rather than the rule here. Break-up comes around early May, and the run that follows is short and strong. Break-up sits around early May on average, with the water closing again about mid November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. The season on Lac Beaudoin follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Should this one be busy, Lac Bradley is 1.2 km off. Nothing here settles the position at Lac Beaudoin for certain.
