Lac Lucie Fishing in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  This water sits in Mauricie, Quebec. Beyond the shoreline you have pine and birch. This is a pocket water of some 8 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. 59 km away sits Saint-Michel-des-Saints, the nearest town. Trois-Rivières sits 107 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lucie

  We hold no depth figure for this one. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Across Mauricie, recorded fish include northern pike, brook trout, walleye, yellow perch and white sucker. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Work Lac Lucie in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 17°C for July and -16°C for January. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about early May. Averages suggest open water from about early May through to roughly mid November. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. It sets the rhythm of the year at Lac Lucie.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. If the gate is shut, Lac du Nenuphar at 1.5 km is the nearest alternative. Nothing here settles the position at Lac Lucie for certain.
