• Where to Fish on Quatrieme Lac

  The records we hold are silent on depth, so plan to find it yourself. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Public occurrence data for Côte-Nord names logperch. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific.

• Seasonal Patterns

  July is the warm end of the year here, averaging about 16°C, while January sits near -14°C. Winter closes the water for a while, and the reopening is worth catching. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from early May. In an average year the thaw lands around early May and the freeze near mid November. Reckon on open water from spring through to late autumn, with May and June the strongest. Plan any trip to Quatrieme Lac around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. If the gate is shut, Cinquieme Lac at 0.6 km is the nearest alternative. None of that is settled for Quatrieme Lac in what we hold.
