Lac Wallon Fishing Guide, Laurentides, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Wallon is set in Laurentides, Quebec. Height above sea level is 299 metres. This is a pocket water of some 6 hectares, and every part of it is reachable from the bank. Notre-Dame-du-Mont-Carmel sits 31 km from here and is the nearest stop. After that come La Minerve at 41 km and Mont-Laurier at 45 km. Within easy reach: Lac Cornemuse within 0.8 km, Lac des Solidages after 1 km, Lac Aizy within 1.1 km, Lac des Arnicas after 1.3 km and Lac Sagot within 1.6 km. There is no boundary nearby to worry about.

• Where to Fish on Lac Wallon

  Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Public occurrence data for Laurentides names pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and brook trout. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Fish Lac Wallon where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 18°C for July and -14°C for January. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from late April. On the long-run averages the water opens up around late April and starts locking again about late November. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. Plan around that when you fish Lac Wallon.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. Nothing is listed nearby for parking or launching a boat. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. If the gate is shut, Lac Cornemuse at 0.8 km is the nearest alternative. Confirm access to Lac Wallon locally before you travel.
