Lac Lormont Fishing near Labelle, Quebec

• Overview

  Laurentides in Quebec is where Lac Lormont sits. What surrounds it is mixed forest. Roughly 14 hectares: a morning covers one end, an afternoon the other. The bank runs about 3.3 km all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. You are 13 km from Labelle. Rivière-Rouge lies 16 km off, Mont-Tremblant another 20 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lormont

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Species logged across Laurentides include pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass and yellow perch. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. At Lac Lormont light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 18°C; the cold one sits at -15°C. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around late April. Climate figures give an open season running late April to late November. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. The season on Lac Lormont follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Lac Desormeaux sits 1.2 km off and takes the overflow. Rules at Lac Lormont are worth checking on the day.
