Lac Finque, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Côte-Nord, Quebec, is where Lac Finque sits. The country round it is boreal forest from end to end. About 6 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. Our Côte-Nord list holds plenty of bigger water. The closest town, Port-Cartier, is 23 km away. Saint-Alexandre is 23 km away, with Sept-Îles at 61 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Lac Finque

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Fish documented in Côte-Nord include logperch. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. On Lac Finque that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -16°C in January up to 16°C in July. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly early May. The season between ice runs from about early May to mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. The season on Lac Finque rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Should this one be busy, Lac Orde is 1.2 km off. Check the current arrangement for Lac Finque.
