Fishing Lac Valmont in Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  You will find Lac Valmont in Côte-Nord, Quebec. The sea is 19 km distant. About 2 hectares of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It is a small entry by Côte-Nord standards. Start from Port-Cartier, 22 km down the road. Then Saint-Alexandre, 22 km, and Sept-Îles, 56 km. Other water nearby: Lac des Chomeurs at 1.9 km, 2.6 km out stands Lac du Moucherolle, Lac a Pit-Dion at 2.9 km, 3.3 km out stands Lac Philibert and Lac Motaghao at 3.7 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.

• Where to Fish on Lac Valmont

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Côte-Nord records list logperch among the fish reported. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Take Lac Valmont a stretch at a time.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -16°C to 16°C. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. Ice clears near early May and comes back about mid November in a typical year. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Anyone fishing Lac Valmont regularly works to that calendar.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Gates get locked out of season on water like this. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Lac des Chomeurs at 1.9 km is the sensible second choice. Confirm before you fish Lac Valmont.
