Lac Loudon Fishing in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Loudon belongs to Mauricie, Quebec. It sits in northern bush country. Surface area runs to roughly 1.37 sq km, so plan for one area rather than the whole. Around 6.9 km of bank, which is a long day on foot. It is among the larger waters listed here for Mauricie. Some 63 km away sits Chapais, the nearest settlement. The nearest city of size is Saguenay, 299 km away. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Loudon

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Fish documented in Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Fish Lac Loudon to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Typical July readings run about 16°C; by January the average is down near -19°C. Little of the calendar is open water, so timing counts for everything. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. Averages suggest open water from about early May through to roughly mid November. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. That shapes the year on Lac Loudon.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. No made access appears within a short radius, so plan to park on a verge and walk. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. The nearest alternative is Lac Perce, 2.1 km out. Confirm before you fish Lac Loudon.
