Lac Lono Fishing in Outaouais, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Lono is listed under Outaouais, Quebec. It sits at 372 metres above sea level. A splashy cast here empties the swim; a quiet one owns it. Our Outaouais list holds plenty of bigger water. Saint-Boniface lies 92 km from the water. The big place round here is Gatineau, 202 km distant. Other water nearby: Lac Agnat 0.7 km, Lac Uvee 0.9 km off, Lac Chelidoine 0.9 km, Lac du Talisman 1 km off and Lac Tookie 1.4 km. It lies deep inside the county rather than near an edge.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lono

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Survey and observation records for Outaouais include pumpkinseed, yellow perch, smallmouth bass, rainbow smelt and Iowa darter. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. Lac Lono repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between -17°C in January and 17°C in July. Expect a real winter and a strong spring after it. Hard water holds through the cold months, breaking up near early May. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near late November in autumn. Reckon on open water from spring through to late autumn, with May and June the strongest. That shapes the year on Lac Lono.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Lac Agnat at 0.7 km is the sensible second choice. Treat Lac Lono as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
