Fishing at Lac du Remous, Outaouais, Quebec

• Overview

  You will find Lac du Remous in Outaouais, Quebec. The surroundings are spruce and muskeg. About 3 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Outaouais. For a base, Saint-Boniface sits 98 km out. Gatineau is the closest city, 214 km away. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.

• Where to Fish on Lac du Remous

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Survey and observation records for Outaouais include pumpkinseed, yellow perch, smallmouth bass, rainbow smelt and Iowa darter. Take it as the county picture rather than a promise for this water. The shape of Lac du Remous rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 17°C in July and bottoms out near -17°C in January. The season is measured in weeks rather than months. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly early May. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about early May until roughly mid November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. That shapes the year on Lac du Remous.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. If the gate is shut, Lac Patis at 0.7 km is the nearest alternative. Confirm before you fish Lac du Remous.
