Lac Tirasse, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Tirasse lies within the bounds of Mauricie, Quebec. The land about it is northern bush. Around 13 hectares of surface means several distinct areas to work. Shoreline comes to about 3.0 km, small enough to learn in a day. Leblanc lies 52 km from the water. Trois-Rivières is the closest city, 224 km away. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Tirasse

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. 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. Reported across Mauricie: northern pike, brook trout, walleye, yellow perch and white sucker. The county list is broader than any single water. The shape of Lac Tirasse rewards a slow walk along one bank.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July runs about 16°C on average, January about -17°C. Everything is compressed into the middle of the year. Ice-out usually falls in early May, and the weeks after it fish hardest. On average, early May opens the water and mid November closes it again. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Expect Lac Tirasse to follow that timing.
