Lac Touladi Fishing in Mauricie, Quebec

• Overview

  Mauricie, Quebec, is where Lac Touladi sits. Land around it is pine and birch. It measures about 38 hectares, which is a comfortable size for bank fishing. The bank runs about 3.9 km all the way round, so one visit can cover most of it. It is among the larger waters listed here for Mauricie. Nearest place of any size is La Tuque, 40 km away. It is 161 km to Trois-Rivières, the nearest city. No boundary runs near, so the local rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lac Touladi

  We hold no depth figure for this one. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Records held for Mauricie cover northern pike, brook trout and walleye. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. Work Lac Touladi in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about -16°C and July at about 17°C, the water has a wide range to work through. A full turn of seasons, with the strongest sport on either side of summer. Count the season from break-up, usually late April. Ice clears near late April and comes back about mid November in a typical year. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. The season on Lac Touladi follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. Mapping shows no built access close by; expect to walk in from wherever you can leave the car. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Lac Adams at 1.6 km is the sensible second choice. Where Lac Touladi is concerned, a local answer beats a written one.
