Flat light and a covered sky today, with the surface near flat and pressure going nowhere. Fish at Lac Roney should hold close to sheltered bays and points. Not a day the forecast likes; the night keeps a flicker of interest. Lower the pace and stay patient. Fish follow the bait in autumn, so find one to find the other.

The Côte-Nord entry here is Lac Roney, in Quebec. The setting is boreal forest. Surface area is around 26 hectares, which gives you real water without needing a boat. The edge runs 2.9 km or so, easy to work in an afternoon. It is low-lying compared with other Quebec water we list. The nearest town is Betsiamites, 23 km away. The big place round here is Saguenay, 178 km distant. This one is safely inside the county line.
Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. Read Lac Roney before you fish it and the day goes better.
Expect July to average close to 17°C, with January the cold end at about -16°C. The fishing year opens late and shuts early. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around early May. The open-water window runs from around early May to about mid November in an average year. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. That is the shape of the year on Lac Roney.
We hold no note on access for this one. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. The nearest alternative is Lac Nekatautshishkau, 2.4 km out. Where Lac Roney is concerned, a local answer beats a written one.
