Dull, settled light over the water, with a kind WNW breeze on the water with the glass holding level. The productive water at Lac Neon will be around the first drop-off and weed lines. The strongest window runs from the day. Stay mobile and follow the activity. A properly cold day, so expect slow, deliberate fishing.

Look for Lac Neon in Mauricie, Quebec. Spruce and muskeg runs right down to the water. Head to Leblanc, 69 km away, for anything you forgot. For a city, Saguenay is 257 km off. More in the same country: Lac Arthur 1.9 km off, Lac Kacicipickacik a shade over 2 km, Lac des Indiens 2.6 km off, Lac du Foin a shade over 2.6 km and Lac Kaokashiskak 3.4 km off. The nearest boundary is a fair way off.
We hold no depth figure for this one. 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. Mauricie records list northern pike, brook trout and walleye among the fish reported. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Work Lac Neon in sections rather than trying to cover it.
Climate records put July near 16°C and January near -18°C. The ice season is long here and the open one short. Ice-out usually falls in early May, and the weeks after it fish hardest. 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. Time your trip to Lac Neon by conditions rather than dates.
No access rule appears in what we hold. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. For a change of water, Lac Arthur is 1.9 km distant. Signs at Lac Neon carry more weight than any list.
