Lac Foligne Fishing in Quebec, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Foligne is one of the Quebec waters in Quebec. The bank is 303 metres above sea level. The water covers some 44 hectares, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. The edge covers about 6.4 km, enough to hold several distinct areas. Deep River lies 57 km from the water. The big place round here is Gatineau, 200 km distant. This one is safely inside the county line.

• Where to Fish on Lac Foligne

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. On Lac Foligne the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort. The far bank looks better because you cannot see the snags.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about -15°C and July at about 18°C, the water has a wide range to work through. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from late April. Ice clears near late April and comes back about late November in a typical year. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. The season on Lac Foligne rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Lac des Coureurs de Bois at 2.9 km is the sensible second choice. Confirm before you fish Lac Foligne.
