At Petit lac Chevreuil light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 18°C and January near -14°C on the long-run figures. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. After late April the shallows warm and the fish move up. Ice usually gives way near late April, and forms again about late November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. It holds true on Petit lac Chevreuil more years than not.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Nothing formal is recorded here: no ramp, no car park, no marked path. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Lac Chevreuil sits 2.3 km off and takes the overflow. Confirm access to Petit lac Chevreuil locally before you travel.
