Overcast skies today, with just enough S wind to ripple the surface with the glass holding level. Fish at Lac Vincent should hold close to windblown banks where food collects. The strongest window is the morning. Trust the forecast and stay out through the window. Cooler water spreads fish back across the shallows.

You will find Lac Vincent in Mauricie, Quebec. It stands 229 metres above sea level. You can fish the entire water from one spot if you pick it well. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Mauricie. The nearest town is Mandeville, 17 km away. Trois-Rivières is the closest city, 44 km away. A border sits close enough to be relevant to the paperwork.
Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Records held for Mauricie cover northern pike, brook trout, walleye and yellow perch. These are county-wide records, so not all of them will be in this water. Fish Lac Vincent where the bottom changes rather than where it looks deep.
Seasonal averages run from -13°C in January up to 19°C in July. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Hard water holds through the cold months, breaking up near late April. The season between ice runs from about late April to late November. Fish feed hardest at the start and the close of the open season. Plan any trip to Lac Vincent around it.
Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Nothing is mapped in the way of a ramp or car park within a short radius. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Lac des Soeurs sits 0.7 km off and takes the overflow. Check the current arrangement for Lac Vincent.
