Lac Ned Fishing in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  You will find Lac Ned in Mauricie, Quebec. The land about it is boreal forest. Small enough that any disturbance crosses the whole surface. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Mauricie. You are 17 km from Weymontachie. The big place round here is Trois-Rivières, 190 km distant.

• Where to Fish on Lac Ned

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Fish documented in Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Anyone new to Lac Ned should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 17°C in July and bottom out at -16°C in January. The freeze holds for the better part of the year. Look for the thaw near early May; the fishing lifts straight after. Ice clears near early May and comes back about mid November in a typical year. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. It holds true on Lac Ned more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Formal access is not mapped, so the last stretch is likely on foot. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Some water is controlled locally without a sign saying so. Lac Hovey, 0.7 km away, makes the obvious fallback. Treat Lac Ned as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
