Soft grey light all day today, with steady pressure of wind from the SSW and pressure going nowhere. Start the search at Lac Cent Piastres along structure within a cast of the bank. The day peaks in the night. Work fewer spots, but work them properly. The season of moving fish: stay mobile and watch for bait.

You will find Lac Cent Piastres in Lanaudière, Quebec. Height above sea level is 586 metres. The water covers some 15 hectares, so pick a bank rather than trying to cover it all. The whole outline is near 3.2 km, and most of it is walkable. It sits higher than most water we list in Quebec. Manawan lies 30 km from the water. Beyond it, Saint-Michel-des-Saints at 52 km and Rivière-Rouge at 67 km. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.
Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Across Lanaudière, recorded fish include pumpkinseed, smallmouth bass and yellow perch. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Lac Cent Piastres gives up more to patience than to distance.
Typical July readings run about 16°C; by January the average is down near -16°C. The season is measured in weeks rather than months. The lid usually goes in early May, which opens the strongest weeks of the year. Break-up sits around early May on average, with the water closing again about mid November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Expect Lac Cent Piastres to follow that timing.
No access rule appears in what we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Should this one be busy, Lac du Repos is 0.7 km off. Confirm before you fish Lac Cent Piastres.
