• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 16°C in July and bottom out at -19°C in January. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly mid May. Ice clears near mid May and comes back about early November in a typical year. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. Expect Lac des Petites Poires to follow that timing.
