Lac Servières is Guéry's quieter neighbour — a round, shallow volcanic lake sitting in a broad crater at 1200 metres, stocked with brown trout and fringed by the kind of high meadow that looks, frankly, like it was put there by someone with an advertising brief. The fishing is best at the edges: wind lanes where terrestrials drift in, the weedy margins at first and last light, the deeper pocket near the outflow where the bigger fish hold. Wading is possible in places but a float-tube opens up the whole lake. Same inter-federal permit as Guéry. Shallower and more exposed than Pavin, but on a still summer morning with the mist lifting it's hard to argue with the atmosphere. Terrestrials and small nymphs fished slow. Not a river-fisher's obvious choice — but if you're in the Sancy for the week, skipping it would be foolish.
