  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Survey and observation records for Côte-Nord include logperch. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. On Lac en Croissant the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

  The range across the year is -23°C to 13°C. Long winters and short summers set the pattern. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly late May. Ice usually gives way near late May, and forms again about late October. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns.
