• Overview

  Lac Trivio lies in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Quebec. It stands 310 metres above sea level. With some 80 hectares of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one.

Senneterre follows at 41 km, then Barraute at 46 km. It sits well inside its county, with no border complications.

• Where to Fish on Lac Trivio

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Fish documented in Abitibi-Témiscamingue include northern pike, yellow perch, walleye and white sucker. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Take Lac Trivio a stretch at a time.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 17°C, the coldest about -16°C. Winter owns most of the year at this latitude. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around early May. The water is typically free of ice between early May and mid November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Plan around that when you fish Lac Trivio.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No made access appears within a short radius, so plan to park on a verge and walk. A wire trace and a big bright lure handle the pike; deep water asks for a heavier spoon. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Access can change hands, so last year's answer may not hold. Lac Saint-Felix, 4.5 km away, makes the obvious fallback. Nothing on Lac Trivio should be assumed from this page alone.
