• Where to Fish on Lac Breen

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Records held for Laurentides cover pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and brook trout. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. On Lac Breen the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 20°C in July and bottom out at -12°C in January. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Look for the thaw near mid April; the fishing lifts straight after. Averages place the thaw at mid April and the freeze at early December. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. It holds true on Lac Breen more years than not.
