Lac Nabob Fishing in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  Set in Mauricie, Lac Nabob is a Quebec water. It sits at 429 metres above sea level. Roughly 14 hectares: a morning covers one end, an afternoon the other. There is roughly 1.5 km of shoreline here, which is a short walk end to end. The closest town, Weymontachie, is 49 km away. Manawan lies 57 km off, La Tuque another 70 km. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Nabob

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Records held for Mauricie cover northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. The shape of Lac Nabob rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -16°C to 17°C. Water stays cold even at the height of the year. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around early May. The water is typically free of ice between early May and mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Lac Nabob fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Lac Shaw sits 0.7 km off and takes the overflow. Where Lac Nabob is concerned, a local answer beats a written one.
