Fishing at Septieme Lac, Côte-Nord, Quebec

• Overview

  Septieme Lac is a Côte-Nord water, Quebec side. It sits at 263 metres above sea level. Around 40 hectares of surface means several distinct areas to work. Shoreline length is close to 5.7 km, and each section fishes a little differently. For supplies, Baie-Comeau is 65 km out. The nearest city of size is Saguenay, 294 km away. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Septieme Lac

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Reported across Côte-Nord: logperch. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. At Septieme Lac light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 16°C for July and -15°C for January. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. Ice is part of the season here, ending near early May. The season between ice runs from about early May to mid November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Anyone fishing Septieme Lac regularly works to that calendar.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. Perch take small lures and worms fished near the bottom close to structure. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Barbless rules turn up on managed water more often than not. If the gate is shut, Lac du Kalmia at 1.4 km is the nearest alternative. Treat Septieme Lac as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
