Lac Kamickekwakamacik, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Quebec holds Lac Kamickekwakamacik, in Lanaudière. It stands 422 metres above sea level. This is a pocket water of some 3 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. On size it sits at the modest end of our Lanaudière list. Manawan is the closest town at 45 km. Trois-Rivières sits 137 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.

• Where to Fish on Lac Kamickekwakamacik

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Records held for Lanaudière cover pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and rock bass. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Fish Lac Kamickekwakamacik to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Average temperature peaks around 17°C in July and bottoms out near -16°C in January. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough early May. Averages place the thaw at early May and the freeze at mid November. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. That shapes the year on Lac Kamickekwakamacik.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Lac Sim, 2.8 km away, makes the obvious fallback. Nothing on Lac Kamickekwakamacik should be assumed from this page alone.
