• Where to Fish on Lac Remi

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. County-wide records name northern pike, Atlantic salmon and lake whitefish. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Read Lac Remi before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 15°C and January near -21°C on the long-run figures. Open water arrives late and leaves early, which concentrates the fishing. Once it clears, about mid May, the fishing comes on quickly. Average temperatures cross freezing around mid May in spring and again near early November in autumn. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. Plan any trip to Lac Remi around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. A wire trace and a big bright lure handle the pike; deep water asks for a heavier spoon. Take the rules with you rather than trusting memory. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. Failing this one, try Lac Canot, 1.4 km away. Check the position at Lac Remi before loading the car.
