Lac Vermet, Quebec: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lac Vermet falls in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, part of Quebec. Elevation runs to 334 metres. With some 11 hectares of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. The closest town, Val-d'Or, is 57 km distant. Then Malartic, 66 km, and Barraute, 95 km. Water in the same corner: Lac Goudie out at 1.9 km, Lac Adent about 1.9 km, Lac Doline out at 2.8 km, Lac Poncin about 2.8 km and Lac Black out at 3 km. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Vermet

  Our records hold no depth for this water. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Survey and observation records for Abitibi-Témiscamingue include northern pike, yellow perch, walleye and white sucker. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Anyone new to Lac Vermet should walk it once before setting up.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 17°C and January near -16°C on the long-run figures. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. Expect a solid lid for months and a thaw around early May. On average, early May opens the water and late November closes it again. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. The season on Lac Vermet rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. Pike mean a wire trace, no exceptions; big spoons and jerkbaits do the searching. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. The nearest alternative is Lac Goudie, 1.9 km out. Nothing on Lac Vermet should be assumed from this page alone.
