Lac Lucille Fishing Guide, Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Look for Lac Lucille in the Côte-Nord part of Quebec. It lies 298 metres above sea level. At about 13 hectares, a day is enough to walk the shoreline properly. Bank access stretches around 2.7 km in total. Start from Kuujjuaq, 229 km down the road. The big place round here is Saguenay, 866 km distant. Also within reach: Lac de la Plage 3.3 km, 6.9 km away is Lac Lace, Lac Roussenet 9.9 km, 11 km away is Lac Nona and Lac Montoye 12 km. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lucille

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Reported across Côte-Nord: logperch. Read it as a county summary, not a water-by-water list. Take Lac Lucille a stretch at a time.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-run averages give July about 12°C and January about -25°C. Little of the calendar is open water, so timing counts for everything. Look for the thaw near late May; the fishing lifts straight after. Break-up near late May, freeze-up near late October: that is the shape of an average year. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. That shapes the year on Lac Lucille.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Lac de la Plage, 3.3 km away, makes the obvious fallback. What applies at Lac Lucille may have changed since it was mapped.
