A grey, even sky over the water, with a soft N wind and steady pressure. Expect most activity at Lac Price around reed fringes and open pockets. The productive run goes the day. Start on the obvious water and expand from there. A raw day: short sessions and precise casts pay.

Lac Price stands in Mauricie, Quebec. It sits at 365 metres above sea level. The water measures roughly 3 hectares, so nothing here is far from anything else. On size it sits at the modest end of our Mauricie list. The closest town, Laurentides, is 19 km distant. Trois-Rivières sits 75 km out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. No county line comes close, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Our records hold no depth for this water. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. Open biodiversity records for Mauricie list northern pike, brook trout, walleye, yellow perch and white sucker. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Fish Lac Price to its features, not to its size.
Typical July readings run about 18°C; by January the average is down near -15°C. Winter closes the water for a while, and the reopening is worth catching. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly late April. Climate figures give an open season running late April to late November. Spring is short and heavy here; autumn is longer and steadier. On Lac Price the same rules apply, with local timing.
Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. A campsite is mapped about 410 m away, which makes an early start easier. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Where a permit is needed, the nearest town usually sells it. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. The nearest alternative is Lac a l'Orignal, 0.4 km out. Rules at Lac Price are worth checking on the day.
