• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages move between -16°C in January and 16°C in July. Water stays cold even at the height of the year. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near early May. Ice usually gives way near early May, and forms again about mid November. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. On Lac Rond that shapes the whole year.
