Lac du Rejet Fishing Guide, Outaouais, Quebec

• Overview

  Look for Lac du Rejet in the Outaouais part of Quebec. It sits at 371 metres above sea level. About 5 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight.

Nearby, in order: Lac Orban 1.6 km away, Lac Keshtets at 1.6 km, Lac du Liteau 1.7 km away, Lac Lignine at 2.2 km and Lac Berme 2.6 km away. There is no boundary nearby to worry about.

• Where to Fish on Lac du Rejet

  Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. 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. At Lac du Rejet light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -17°C in January up to 17°C in July. A full turn of seasons, with the strongest sport on either side of summer. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from early May. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near late November in autumn. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. It holds true on Lac du Rejet more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. The nearest alternative is Lac Orban, 1.6 km out. Confirm before you fish Lac du Rejet.
