Flat light and a covered sky today, with a soft WNW wind and the barometer holding steady. The water to cover at Lac Luret is the seam between weed and open water. The useful hours run the day. Trust the forecast and stay out through the window. The cold puts a premium on the calmest, deepest water.

In Quebec, Lac Luret falls inside Mauricie. The setting is boreal forest on every side. About 3 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. Most waters listed here for Mauricie are larger. Nearest place of any size is Leblanc, 64 km away. Saguenay is the closest city, 236 km away. Near neighbours include: Lac Ezy at 0.9 km, Lac Huard out at 0.9 km, Lac Throop at 1 km, Lac Poele out at 1.4 km and Lac Fregeau at 1.5 km. Rules here are straightforward: one set of provincial rules.
No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Species logged across Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout and walleye. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. On Lac Luret the first feature you find is usually worth a session.
Seasonal averages run from -18°C in January up to 16°C in July. The ice season is long here and the open one short. Hard water holds through the cold months, breaking up near early May. Climate figures give an open season running early May to mid November. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. On Lac Luret that shapes the whole year.
The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. 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 the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Lac Ezy sits 0.9 km off and takes the overflow. Signs at Lac Luret carry more weight than any list.
