Lac Londry, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Londry is one of the Nord-du-Québec listings for Quebec. Height above sea level is 332 metres. It runs to roughly 81 hectares — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. Roughly 4.5 km of bank means you can walk to a fresh area when one goes quiet. The nearest town is Waswanipi, 43 km away. For a city, Saguenay is 379 km off. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Londry

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Across Nord-du-Québec, recorded fish include Arctic charr, brook trout, lake trout and lake whitefish. Read it as a county summary, not a water-by-water list. At Lac Londry light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 16°C and January near -19°C. Water stays cold even at the height of the year. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from early May. The open-water window runs from around early May to about mid November in an average year. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. That shapes the year on Lac Londry.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Access is unmapped, which usually means a farm track and a walk. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Take the rules with you rather than trusting memory. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. Should this one be busy, Lac Nicobi is 3.9 km off. Check the current arrangement for Lac Londry.
