Lac Bourlamaque, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Bourlamaque falls in Côte-Nord, part of Quebec. The ground round it is boreal forest. It measures some 2.19 sq km, and wind has room to build across it. It is among the larger waters listed here for Côte-Nord. The nearest place of any size is Labrador City, 287 km away. Saguenay sits 840 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Bourlamaque

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. The shape of Lac Bourlamaque decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between -25°C in January and 12°C in July. The year here is short and sharp: a long lid, then a burst of open water. Break-up comes around early June, and the run that follows is short and strong. The lid tends to go about early June and return around late October. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. At Lac Bourlamaque the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Should this one be busy, Lac Hurst is 4.1 km off. Signs at Lac Bourlamaque carry more weight than any list.
