Lac des Deux Clubs near Métabetchouan: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  You will find Lac des Deux Clubs in Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec. The water sits 396 metres up. At about 41 hectares, a day is enough to walk the shoreline properly. Around 3.7 km of margin, front to back. On our Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean list it sits near the top for size. Métabetchouan lies 27 km from the water. Then Desbiens, 32 km, and Metabetchouan-Lac-a-la-Croix, 34 km. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Lac des Deux Clubs

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Open biodiversity records for Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean list northern pike, Atlantic salmon, lake whitefish and fallfish. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. At Lac des Deux Clubs the water rewards a slow, careful approach.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 17°C and January reads -17°C. The year here is short and sharp: a long lid, then a burst of open water. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. Break-up sits around early May on average, with the water closing again about mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. It sets the rhythm of the year at Lac des Deux Clubs.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. Failing this one, try Lac Thomas, 3.5 km away. None of that is settled for Lac des Deux Clubs in what we hold.
