Petit lac Letemplier in Côte-Nord: How and When to Fish It

• Overview

  You will find Petit lac Letemplier in Côte-Nord, Quebec. It sits 34 km in from the sea. This is sizeable water at about 1.11 sq km, and a boat opens up most of it. The margin runs to about 5.7 km in total. It lies lower than most water we list in Quebec. Chute-aux-Outardes sits 43 km from here and is the nearest stop. For a city, Saguenay is 203 km off. No border sits close enough to matter.

• Where to Fish on Petit lac Letemplier

  Nothing we hold settles how deep this runs. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Public occurrence data for Côte-Nord names logperch. The county list is broader than any single water. At Petit lac Letemplier light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about -17°C in January to roughly 16°C in July. Ice holds for a long stretch, so the open weeks matter more here than further south. Count the season from break-up, usually early May. Break-up sits around early May on average, with the water closing again about mid November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. The season on Petit lac Letemplier rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access status is simply unknown for this water. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No slipway, car park or made path shows up nearby in mapping, so treat access as rough. For the perch, a small jig tipped with worm, dropped along the edges, is hard to beat. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. Lac Letemplier at 3.9 km is the sensible second choice. Nothing here settles the position at Petit lac Letemplier for certain.
