Walleye and Perch Bonanza on Lake St. Clair, Michigan's Premier Fishing Destination

  • Résumé

  • As of November 10, 2024, here’s a detailed fishing report for Lake St. Clair, Michigan.

    ### Weather and Conditions
    Today, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. The wind is light, coming from the northwest at about 5 mph, which should make for a relatively calm day on the water. Sunrise was at 7:04 AM, and sunset will be at 5:02 PM.

    ### Tidal Report
    Lake St. Clair is not a tidal body of water, so you don't need to worry about tidal changes affecting your fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been good, especially for those targeting walleye and perch. As the water temperatures have cooled down, walleye are becoming more active in the evenings and at night. Anglers have been catching walleye off various points along the lake, such as South River Road, Metro Park, Brandenburg, and Blossom Heath. These areas tend to attract fish as the water cools and weeds die off, making it easier to access them.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Yesterday, reports indicated a decent catch of walleye, particularly in the evening hours. Anglers were using lipless crankbaits, specifically red eyes, as well as swimbaits and bombers. Perch fishing has also been strong, especially in the South End of the lake around the Dumping Ground area. These perch are reportedly filled with crayfish, indicating a healthy and active fish population.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For walleye, lipless crankbaits like red eyes are working well, along with swimbaits and bombers. For perch, using small jigs tipped with minnows or maggots can be very effective. Crayfish patterns and lures are also a good choice given the perch's current diet.

    ### Hot Spots
    - **South End of the Lake**: The area around the Dumping Ground is hot for perch right now.
    - **Metro Park and Brandenburg**: These points are good for catching walleye in the evenings and at night.
    - **Mouth of the Clinton River and Spillway**: As the water cools, these areas will become more attractive to walleye.

    Overall, it's a great time to be out on Lake St. Clair, with plenty of fish to target and favorable conditions for a successful day of fishing.
