Lac Bleu Fishing in Montérégie, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Bleu is one of the Montérégie listings for Quebec. Elevation runs to 68 metres. This is a pocket water of some 7 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. It is low-lying compared with other Quebec water we list. The closest town, Ange-Gardien, is 1.2 km away. It is 46 km to Longueuil, the nearest city. Rules can differ a short way off, since the county line is near.

• Where to Fish on Lac Bleu

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Fish documented in Montérégie include lake sturgeon, pumpkinseed, tench, common carp and yellow perch. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Read Lac Bleu before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 20°C, with January the cold end at about -10°C. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly mid April. Climate figures give an open season running mid April to early December. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Anyone fishing Lac Bleu regularly works to that calendar.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. A carry of 760 m from the nearest parking is the price of fishing here. Toilets show in mapping about 960 m away. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. If the gate is shut, Lac a Langevin at 15 km is the nearest alternative. Check the position on Lac Bleu before loading the car.
