A grey, even sky over the water, with a soft SSW wind and the barometer holding steady. Expect most activity at Lac Perron around the calm side of the wind. A tough forecast; the night offers the only real chance. One good spot fished well beats five fished quickly. Autumn fish are feeding up and less fussy than in summer.

The Côte-Nord end of Quebec holds Lac Perron. It sits in rolling bush country. This is a pocket water of some 6 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. It is a small entry by Côte-Nord standards. 24 km away sits Baie-Comeau, the nearest town. It is 255 km to Saguenay, the nearest city. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.
Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Survey and observation records for Côte-Nord include logperch. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Lac Perron fishes better once you know its edges.
Long-term averages put July at about 16°C and January near -15°C. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. Climate averages put the opening at about early May and the closing near mid November. From the thaw to midsummer the fishing improves week by week. Time your trip to Lac Perron by conditions rather than dates.
Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. We find no slipway, car park or made path within a short radius, so treat access as rough. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. If the gate is shut, Lac Cyrille at 0.8 km is the nearest alternative. The position on Lac Perron is worth confirming on the day.
