• Where to Fish on Lac des Remiz

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Survey and observation records for Outaouais include pumpkinseed, yellow perch and smallmouth bass. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. On Lac des Remiz a short move beats a long cast.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. Mapping is blank for access, so scout the approach before committing the car. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Lac Orvale sits 1.2 km off and takes the overflow. Confirm before you fish Lac des Remiz.
