Lac Lussier near Chertsey: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Lac Lussier is a Lanaudière water, in Quebec. This is mixed forest ground. This is a tiny water, and one quiet approach covers all of it. On size it sits at the modest end of our Lanaudière list. The closest town, Chertsey, is 6.1 km distant. Rawdon follows at 14 km, then Sainte-Marguerite-du-Lac-Masson at 19 km. It sits well inside its county, with no border complications.

• Where to Fish on Lac Lussier

  Depth here is unknown, so count the lead down before committing. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Open biodiversity records for Lanaudière list pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch, rock bass and brook trout. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. The shape of Lac Lussier rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Typical July readings run about 18°C; by January the average is down near -13°C. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Once it clears, about late April, the fishing comes on quickly. The season between ice runs from about late April to late November. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. Plan around that when you fish Lac Lussier.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. Access is unmapped, which usually means a farm track and a walk. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Should this one be busy, Lac Dupras is 0.9 km off. Nothing here settles the position at Lac Lussier for certain.
