Lac Flossie Fishing Guide, Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Flossie lies within the bounds of Côte-Nord, Quebec. Rolling bush runs right down to the water. Surface area is around 24 hectares, which gives you real water without needing a boat. Shoreline comes to about 2.9 km, small enough to learn in a day. The nearest place of any size is Baie-Comeau, 56 km away. It is 286 km to Saguenay, the nearest city. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Flossie

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Across Côte-Nord, recorded fish include logperch. Records at this level tell you what is in the area. The shape of Lac Flossie rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -14°C in January up to 16°C in July. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Count the season from break-up, usually early May. The water is typically free of ice between early May and mid November. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. The season on Lac Flossie rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Lac Cherry, 0.7 km away, makes the obvious fallback. Ask locally about Lac Flossie if anything is unclear.
