Lac Remi, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Set in Côte-Nord, Lac Remi is a Quebec water. Everything around it is taiga. It runs to roughly 14 hectares — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. There is roughly 2.6 km of shoreline here, which is a short walk end to end. Compared with other Quebec water on our list, it sits high. Start from Saint-Honoré, 95 km down the road. The nearest city of size is Saguenay, 105 km away. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Remi

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Open biodiversity records for Côte-Nord list logperch. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Lac Remi repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-term averages put July at about 16°C and January near -19°C. This far north the hard season runs and runs. Break-up comes around mid May, and the run that follows is short and strong. The season between ice runs from about mid May to mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. On Lac Remi that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing on record says whether the bank is open or closed. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. For a change of water, Lac de la Photo is 1.1 km distant. Treat Lac Remi as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
