Lac Labrecque Fishing in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Labrecque stands in Côte-Nord, Quebec. The bank gives way to rolling bush. At 4 hectares it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. On size it sits at the modest end of our Côte-Nord list. Baie-Comeau sits 57 km from the bank. Saguenay is the closest city, 288 km away. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Labrecque

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Public occurrence data for Côte-Nord names logperch. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. Fish Lac Labrecque to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 16°C, with January the cold end at about -14°C. Winter shuts the surface down for months. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around early May. Break-up near early May, freeze-up near mid November: that is the shape of an average year. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. Lac Labrecque fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Lac Grebe sits 0.6 km off and takes the overflow. Nothing on Lac Labrecque should be assumed from this page alone.
