Fishing Lac Pom in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Pom is a Mauricie water, in Quebec. Elevation runs to 479 metres. About 4 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. Our Mauricie list holds plenty of bigger water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Pom

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Survey and observation records for Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Treat Lac Pom as a water to read rather than to cover.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Temperature averages peak at 16°C in July and bottom out at -17°C in January. Open water arrives late and leaves early, which concentrates the fishing. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early May. The season between ice runs from about early May to mid November. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. Lac Pom fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Failing this one, try Lac Elmco, 2.1 km away. For Lac Pom in particular, ask before you travel.
