Rain colouring the margins today, with a useful S wind pushing food about and pressure sitting still. On Lac Ntshuku, work the seam between weed and open water first. Little to get excited about, though the night holds a sliver of promise. Lower the pace and stay patient. Fish follow the bait in autumn, so find one to find the other.

Lac Ntshuku belongs to Côte-Nord, Quebec. It sits at 122 metres above sea level. The water measures roughly 5 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. Our Côte-Nord list holds plenty of bigger water. Saint-Augustin lies 14 km from the water. St. Anthony is 215 km away, with Baie Verte at 237 km. Rules here are straightforward: one set of provincial rules.
We hold no depth figure for this one. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Public occurrence data for Côte-Nord names logperch. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. At Lac Ntshuku the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.
Between January at about -15°C and July at about 14°C, the water has a wide range to work through. Long winters and short summers set the pattern. Expect a solid lid for months and a thaw around mid May. Average temperatures cross freezing around mid May in spring and again near mid November in autumn. The strong weeks are the first after break-up and the last before the freeze. It holds true on Lac Ntshuku more years than not.
Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. For a change of water, Etang Tardivet is 4.9 km distant. Check the current arrangement for Lac Ntshuku.
