Stars out and no cloud tonight, with hardly a ripple anywhere and pressure going nowhere. Lac Nome should fish best around sheltered bays and points today. A hard day on paper; the night edges the rest. Scale down and fish slowly. Falling temperatures are switching fish back on.

Lac Nome lies within the bounds of Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Quebec. It stands 323 metres above sea level. At roughly 8 hectares, the whole thing is within casting reach of a single walk. The nearest town is Val-d'Or, 53 km away. Malartic is 62 km away, with Barraute at 91 km. Within a short drive: Lac Doloire at 0.2 km, Lac Capitoul a shade over 0.6 km, Lac Black at 1.5 km, Lac Valay a shade over 2.7 km and Lac Goudie at 3.6 km. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.
Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Species logged across Abitibi-Témiscamingue include northern pike, yellow perch and walleye. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Fish Lac Nome to its features, not to its size.
Expect July to average close to 17°C, with January the cold end at about -16°C. Fishing here follows the temperature more than the calendar. Ice-out usually falls in early May, and the weeks after it fish hardest. Ice clears near early May and comes back about late November in a typical year. The first weeks of open water and the last are the ones to plan for. The season on Lac Nome rarely departs from it.
Access status is simply unknown for this water. There is camping recorded roughly 440 m off. A wire trace and a big bright lure handle the pike; deep water asks for a heavier spoon. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Should this one be busy, Lac Doloire is 0.2 km off.
