Lac Rond Fishing near Saint-Ubalde, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Rond sits within Capitale-Nationale in Quebec. Height above sea level is 173 metres. About 2 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Capitale-Nationale. Saint-Ubalde is the closest town at 6.2 km. Trois-Rivières sits 54 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Lac Rond

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Records held for Capitale-Nationale cover lake sturgeon, Atlantic sturgeon, longnose sucker, sauger and channel catfish. Protected fish appear in the records for this area, so treat the list as information, not an invitation. Fish Lac Rond to its features, not to its size.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 19°C, with January the cold end at about -14°C. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around late April. The water is typically free of ice between late April and late November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. That shapes the year on Lac Rond.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Mapping shows a jetty some 640 m off. For walleye, a jig and minnow near the bottom is the standard; evenings beat middays. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Failing this one, try Lac a Francis, 1.1 km away. None of that is settled for Lac Rond in what we hold.
