Cloud from horizon to horizon today, with a mirror surface most of the day with a settled glass. On Lac Ladaux, work any hard bottom among the soft first. A grinding day likely, with the night worth the effort if any is. Save the long walk for a better forecast. The autumn feed-up is on; baitfish areas are the key.

You will find Lac Ladaux in Outaouais, Quebec. Height above sea level is 389 metres. The water measures roughly 2 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Outaouais. Nearest place of any size is Saint-Boniface, 104 km away. Gatineau is the closest city, 204 km away. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.
We hold no depth figure for this one. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. County-wide records name pumpkinseed, yellow perch, smallmouth bass and rainbow smelt. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. On Lac Ladaux the first feature you find is usually worth a session.
Between January at about -16°C and July at about 17°C, the water has a wide range to work through. Hard water is a season in its own right here. After early May the shallows warm and the fish move up. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near late November in autumn. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. That shapes the year on Lac Ladaux.
Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Formal access is not mapped, so the last stretch is likely on foot. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. The nearest alternative is Lac des Erables, 0.2 km out. Treat Lac Ladaux as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
