Fishing Lac Sevigny in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  You will find Lac Sevigny in Côte-Nord, Quebec. Boreal forest runs right down to the water. Supplies mean a trip to Saint-Alexandre, 54 km off. It is 304 km to Saguenay, the nearest city. Water in the same corner: Lac Groulx about 0.9 km, Lac Watt just 1.5 km, Lac Cyr about 1.7 km, Lac Menville just 2.1 km and Lac Donaldson about 2.2 km. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Sevigny

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Records held for Côte-Nord cover logperch. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. The shape of Lac Sevigny decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -15°C to 16°C. This far north the hard season runs and runs. Once it clears, about early May, the fishing comes on quickly. Average temperatures cross freezing around early May in spring and again near mid November in autumn. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. On Lac Sevigny the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Failing this one, try Lac Groulx, 0.9 km away.
