Fishing Lac Lamarre in Lanaudière, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Lamarre sits in Lanaudière, out in Quebec. Salt water lies 34 km off. This is a pocket water of some 4 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. It is low-lying compared with other Quebec water we list. For a base, Saint-Gabriel sits 4.2 km out. After that come Mandeville at 8.6 km and Saint-Jean-de-Matha at 12 km. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lamarre

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Open biodiversity records for Lanaudière list pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and rock bass. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Lac Lamarre fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Typical July readings run about 19°C; by January the average is down near -14°C. Winter shuts things down for a spell, then spring reopens them fast. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from late April. Climate averages put the opening at about late April and the closing near late November. The strong weeks are the first after break-up and the last before the freeze. At Lac Lamarre the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. There is camping recorded roughly 1.2 km off. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Failing this one, try Lac Grenache, 1.2 km away. What applies at Lac Lamarre may have changed since it was mapped.
