Low, flat cloud sitting over the water, with flat calm through the day and the barometer holding steady. Whatever swims in Lac Lombric should be near the seam between weed and open water. One clear peak today: the night. Work fewer spots, but work them properly. The autumn feed-up is on; baitfish areas are the key.

Lac Lombric belongs to Mauricie, Quebec. Height above sea level is 498 metres. It covers about 7 hectares, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. For a base, Manawan sits 48 km out. Trois-Rivières is the closest city, 209 km away. Water in the same corner: Lac Hen after 1.3 km, Lac Snow out at 2.8 km, Lac Soulier after 2.9 km, Lac Dawes out at 3.1 km and Lac Villeneuve after 3.1 km. It sits well inside the county, so one set of rules covers it.
Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Public occurrence data for Mauricie names northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. On Lac Lombric the first feature you find is usually worth a session.
Average temperature peaks around 16°C in July and bottoms out near -17°C in January. This is a two-season water: locked, then wide open. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early May. The open-water window runs from around early May to about mid November in an average year. Reckon on open water from spring through to late autumn, with May and June the strongest. Plan any trip to Lac Lombric around it.
Access is not recorded for this water. Access points are not mapped for this water, which suits people who like quiet. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Parking space is the usual limit rather than the bank itself. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. If the gate is shut, Lac Hen at 1.3 km is the nearest alternative. Rules at Lac Lombric are worth checking on the day.
