Lac Fleurquin, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Fleurquin sits in Laurentides, out in Quebec. The bank is 385 metres above sea level. It covers about 4 hectares, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. Head to Val-Morin, 4.4 km away, for anything you forgot. The big place round here is Saint-Louis-de-Terrebonne, 45 km distant. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Lac Fleurquin

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Open biodiversity records for Laurentides list pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and brook trout. Records at this level tell you what is in the area. Fish Lac Fleurquin where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-run averages give July about 18°C and January about -14°C. A full turn of seasons, with the strongest sport on either side of summer. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around late April. The water is typically free of ice between late April and late November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. Plan around that when you fish Lac Fleurquin.
