Lake St. Clair
Tip of the week:
Techniques:
Baitfish, crayfish and large nymph patterns work year round in open water and ice; work weed beds, structure and depth changes.
Work depth changes and use attractor flies. Topwater flies will take both smallmouth and white bass in the very early morning.
Fish along color changes which indicate depth change, weed lines, or structure.
Seven-day forecast:
Smallmouth are mostly pre-spawn, but if you see any beginning to spawn, don't bother 'em!
