Lac Jasquon, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Jasquon sits within Côte-Nord in Quebec. The coast is 27 km away. The water measures roughly 6 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. It is a small entry by Côte-Nord standards. You are 28 km from Port-Cartier. Saguenay is the closest city, 342 km away. Other water within reach: Lac Lyamont some 1.2 km off, Lac an Eustache 1.8 km away, Lac Bachoie some 1.8 km off, Lac Tical 2.6 km away and Lac Fontaine some 3.9 km off. No county line comes close, which keeps the paperwork simple.

• Where to Fish on Lac Jasquon

  Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Lac Jasquon gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 15°C in July and bottom out at -17°C in January. Long winters and short summers set the pattern. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly mid May. Break-up near mid May, freeze-up near early November: that is the shape of an average year. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. Time your trip to Lac Jasquon by conditions rather than dates.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Lac Lyamont at 1.2 km is the sensible second choice. Rules at Lac Jasquon are worth checking on the day.
