• Where to Fish on Lac Pelletier

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Public occurrence data for Mauricie names 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. The near bank of Lac Pelletier is often the one people ignore.
