Fishing Lac Celender in Lanaudière, Quebec

• Overview

  Lac Celender is listed under Lanaudière, Quebec. Elevation runs to 438 metres. It covers about 2 hectares, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. On size it sits at the modest end of our Lanaudière list. The town to know is Mandeville, 15 km out. The nearest city of size is Trois-Rivières, 76 km away. The county line is nowhere near, so one local authority covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Lac Celender

  No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Across Lanaudière, recorded fish include pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and rock bass. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. On Lac Celender the first feature you find is usually worth a session.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 18°C, with January the cold end at about -14°C. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Winter fishing happens on the ice here, with open water back around late April. Climate figures give an open season running late April to late November. The shoulder weeks of the open season are the productive ones. The season on Lac Celender follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Failing this one, try Lac Marie, 0.9 km away. Check the current arrangement for Lac Celender.
