Lac Latreille Fishing in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Latreille lies within the bounds of Côte-Nord, Quebec. The bank is 472 metres above sea level. The water covers some 38 hectares, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. About 4.7 km of bank, so nothing stays unexplored for long. The town to know is Forestville, 72 km out. Further out sit Betsiamites (83 km) and Chute-aux-Outardes (94 km). Rules here are straightforward: one set of provincial rules.

• Where to Fish on Lac Latreille

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Survey and observation records for Côte-Nord include logperch. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. On Lac Latreille the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -18°C to 16°C. Open water is the exception rather than the rule here. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly early May. The season between ice runs from about early May to mid November. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. The season on Lac Latreille follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Access is unmapped, which usually means a farm track and a walk. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Should this one be busy, Lac Johnston is 1 km off. Rules at Lac Latreille are worth checking on the day.
