Fishing Lac Moore in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Moore is set in Mauricie, Quebec. This is boreal forest ground. A splashy cast here empties the swim; a quiet one owns it. On size it sits at the modest end of our Mauricie list. The town to know is Ferme-Neuve, 99 km out. Then Manawan, 109 km, and Mont-Laurier, 115 km. In the same area: Lac Douglas a shade over 0.5 km, Lac Stuart at about 0.7 km, Lac Crabtree a shade over 1.6 km, Lac Elder at about 1.7 km and Lac Bauman a shade over 1.8 km. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Lac Moore

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Fish documented in Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout and walleye. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Fish Lac Moore where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 16°C; the cold one sits at -17°C. Cold dominates the year and the fishing works around it. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around early May. Climate figures give an open season running early May to mid November. Reckon on open water from spring through to late autumn, with May and June the strongest. At Lac Moore the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  There is no clear statement anywhere on who can fish it. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. Lac Douglas at 0.5 km is the sensible second choice. Confirm access to Lac Moore locally before you travel.
