Lac Pommerel, Newfoundland and Labrador: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Out in Newfoundland and Labrador, sits Lac Pommerel. The country round it is taiga from end to end. About 7.24 sq km, so local knowledge or a boat saves a lot of walking. With about 28 km of shoreline, local advice saves a lot of walking. It sits higher than most water we list in Newfoundland and Labrador. The closest town, Wabush, is 227 km distant. The big place round here is Saguenay, 683 km distant. The nearest edge is a long way off, so local rules apply throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Pommerel

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. The near bank of Lac Pommerel is often the one people ignore. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open.

• Seasonal Patterns

  In an average year July sits at 13°C and January at -21°C. Water stays cold even at the height of the year. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly late May. Climate figures give an open season running late May to early November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. Expect Lac Pommerel to follow that timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. The nearest alternative is Raoullet Lake, 8.7 km out. Treat Lac Pommerel as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
