Lac Goujon, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  In Quebec, Lac Goujon belongs to Outaouais. It sits at 384 metres above sea level. This is a pocket water of some 10 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Shoreline comes to about 1.8 km, small enough to learn in a day. You are 81 km from Ferme-Neuve. The nearest city of size is Gatineau, 197 km away. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Lac Goujon

  Depth figures are not published for this one. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Outaouais records list pumpkinseed, yellow perch and smallmouth bass among the fish reported. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Treat Lac Goujon as a water to read rather than to cover.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 17°C and January near -17°C. Open water is the exception rather than the rule here. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough early May. Climate averages put the opening at about early May and the closing near late November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. Expect Lac Goujon to follow that timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. For a change of water, Lac du Cheptel is 0.8 km distant. What applies at Lac Goujon may have changed since it was mapped.
