Lac Tasialuaruq Fishing near Inukjuak, Quebec

• Overview

  The Nord-du-Québec end of Quebec holds Lac Tasialuaruq. Tidal water begins 17 km from here. Surface area runs to roughly 4.37 sq km, so plan for one area rather than the whole. Around 26 km of margin, so directions matter more than a general plan. It lies lower than most water we list in Quebec. Inukjuak is the closest place, 23 km off. Further out sit Puvirnituq (176 km) and Sanikiluaq (233 km). The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Tasialuaruq

  No depth figure has reached our records, which makes a plummet useful. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Open biodiversity records for Nord-du-Québec list Arctic charr, brook trout, lake trout, lake whitefish and cisco. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Lac Tasialuaruq gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 12°C and February reads -24°C. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. Ice-out usually falls in early June, and the weeks after it fish hardest. Ice clears near early June and comes back about early November in a typical year. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. The season on Lac Tasialuaruq follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Trout here take small spinners, spoons and, where fly water allows, a nymph or dry. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. The nearest alternative is Lac Quurnguup Tasialunga, 3.2 km out. The position on Lac Tasialuaruq is worth confirming on the day.
