Lac Gevimont Fishing in Outaouais, Quebec

• Overview

  Outaouais in Quebec is where Lac Gevimont sits. The ground round it is northern bush. Ferme-Neuve sits 90 km from the bank. Saint-Boniface follows at 92 km, then Mont-Laurier at 101 km. Other water nearby: Lac Bitume about 1 km, Lac Utipan lies 1.5 km on, Lac Orban about 1.6 km, Lac Ripain lies 1.7 km on and Lac du Liteau about 1.9 km. It lies deep inside the county rather than near an edge.

• Where to Fish on Lac Gevimont

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Open biodiversity records for Outaouais list pumpkinseed, yellow perch, smallmouth bass, rainbow smelt and Iowa darter. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. The near bank of Lac Gevimont is often the one people ignore.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 17°C; the cold one sits at -17°C. Cold dominates the year and the fishing works around it. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early May. From about early May to around mid November, expect open water on the long-run figures. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. On Lac Gevimont the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. If the gate is shut, Lac Bitume at 1 km is the nearest alternative. Nothing here settles the position at Lac Gevimont for certain.
