Lac Sally is one of the Côte-Nord waters in Quebec. The shore lies 10 km out. Surface area is around 11 hectares, which gives you real water without needing a boat. About 2.8 km of bank, so nothing stays unexplored for long. The town to know is Saint-Alexandre, 58 km out. Then Port-Cartier, 58 km, and Baie-Comeau, 72 km. It sits well inside its county, with no border complications.
Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Survey and observation records for Côte-Nord include logperch. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Take Lac Sally a stretch at a time.
Seasonal averages run from -15°C in January up to 16°C in July. Cold dominates the year and the fishing works around it. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. In an average year the thaw lands around early May and the freeze near mid November. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Lac Sally.
The paperwork position is blank for this one. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. There is no mapped parking or launch close by, which usually means walking in. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Lac Munier sits 1.1 km off and takes the overflow. Rules at Lac Sally are worth checking on the day.
