Lac Grillon, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  This water sits in Côte-Nord, Quebec. The surroundings are spruce and muskeg. On water this small, stealth matters more than range. Our Côte-Nord list holds plenty of bigger water. Forestville lies 56 km from the water. Betsiamites is 62 km and Chute-aux-Outardes 73 km. Other water nearby: Lac Engoulevent at about 0.9 km, Lac Puyjalon at 1.2 km, Lac Fisher at about 1.3 km, Lac Salvas at 1.8 km and Lac Epilobe at about 2 km. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Grillon

  Depth figures are not published for this one. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. County-wide records name logperch. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Lac Grillon gives up more to patience than to distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -18°C in January up to 16°C in July. Cold dominates the calendar on water this far north. Break-up comes around early May, and the run that follows is short and strong. On average, early May opens the water and mid November closes it again. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. Plan any trip to Lac Grillon around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. The nearest alternative is Lac Engoulevent, 0.9 km out.
