• Where to Fish on Quatrieme lac Boswell

  Depth went unrecorded, which puts the reading back on you. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. County-wide records name lake sturgeon, Atlantic sturgeon, longnose sucker and sauger. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. On Quatrieme lac Boswell a short move beats a long cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from -15°C in January up to 17°C in July. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Count on hard cover from midwinter, and open water from late April. Break-up near late April, freeze-up near late November: that is the shape of an average year. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. It sets the rhythm of the year at Quatrieme lac Boswell.
