A grey, even sky over the water, with light air out of the WSW and pressure going nowhere. Activity on Lac Morion should centre on windblown banks where food collects. Make the evening the heart of the trip. Make the first hour count and build on it. Autumn fish are feeding up and less fussy than in summer.

Lac Morion is one of the Mauricie listings for Quebec. This is boreal forest country. The water measures roughly 7 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. Laurentides sits 32 km from here and is the nearest stop. The nearest city of size is La Cité-Limoilou, 84 km away. Other water nearby: Lac Tolla 0.9 km away, Lac Constantin within 1 km, Lac du Canard 1.6 km away, Lac Sene within 1.6 km and Lac Guernon 2 km away. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.
Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Across Mauricie, recorded fish include northern pike, brook trout, walleye, yellow perch and white sucker. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. On Lac Morion the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort.
Expect July to average close to 17°C, with January the cold end at about -16°C. Water stays cold even at the height of the year. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around early May. Open water usually runs from early May until about mid November. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. Anyone fishing Lac Morion regularly works to that calendar.
We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. 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. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. The nearest alternative is Lac Tolla, 0.9 km out. Rules at Lac Morion are worth checking on the day.
