Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about -17°C in January to roughly 16°C in July. A short, intense season is the rule this far north. Winter locks it down, and early May brings it back. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near mid November in autumn. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems.
