Fishing at Lac Titicaca, Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  This water sits in Mauricie, Quebec. The bank gives way to boreal forest. With some 20 hectares of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. The bank runs about 3.3 km all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. Supplies mean a trip to Leblanc, 48 km off. Then Weymontachie, 87 km, and Manawan, 103 km. Not far off: Lac Sergent 2.5 km, Lac Greenless (3.3 km), Lac Odine 3.6 km, Lac de la Cloture (4.4 km) and Lac Lysburg 4.5 km. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.

• Where to Fish on Lac Titicaca

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Survey and observation records for Mauricie include northern pike, brook trout and walleye. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Anyone new to Lac Titicaca should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is -18°C to 16°C. The ice season is long here and the open one short. Expect a solid lid for months and a thaw around early May. In an average year the thaw lands around early May and the freeze near mid November. The weeks after the thaw and the ones before the freeze are the strongest. Plan any trip to Lac Titicaca around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. Access points are not mapped for this water, which suits people who like quiet. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Should this one be busy, Lac Sergent is 2.5 km off. Nothing here settles the position at Lac Titicaca for certain.
