• Where to Fish on Lac Beausejour

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July is the warm end of the year here, averaging about 15°C, while January sits near -19°C. Cold dominates the year and the fishing works around it. Count the season from break-up, usually mid May. Expect the water usable from around mid May until roughly early November. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. On Lac Beausejour that shapes the whole year.
