Lac Revillart, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Within Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Quebec, you have Lac Revillart. It lies 294 metres above sea level. It runs to roughly 70 hectares — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. Roughly 4.0 km of bank means you can walk to a fresh area when one goes quiet. It is among the larger waters listed here for Abitibi-Témiscamingue. For supplies, Malartic is 13 km out. After that come Val-d'Or at 35 km and Amos at 38 km. There is no boundary nearby to worry about.

• Where to Fish on Lac Revillart

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Open biodiversity records for Abitibi-Témiscamingue list northern pike, yellow perch and walleye. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Anyone new to Lac Revillart should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -17°C to 17°C. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. Count the season from break-up, usually early May. Climate averages put the opening at about early May and the closing near mid November. The first weeks of open water and the last are the ones to plan for. The season on Lac Revillart rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. No launch point is recorded nearby, so this is a bank water unless you carry a boat in. For the pike, wire up and throw larger lures along the weed edges. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Lac du Canard at 3.1 km is the sensible second choice. None of that is settled for Lac Revillart in what we hold.
