Weekend Fishing Report

Heading out on Lake St. Clair, Detroit River or the St. Clair River to go fishing? Here is what is biting on local waterways.

Looking to cast a line this weekend catch the "big one?" Here is what is biting in local waterways according to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources:

  • Lake St. Clair:  Has very good bass fishing along the Mile Roads. Anglers are taking near limit catches of white bass Sunshine Point and Huron Point which is the tip of the Metro Park. Boat anglers anchoring off these points are also catching white bass.
  • Detroit River:  The white bass are starting to thin out. Perch have been caught around the northeast and southeast corners of Celeron Island. Walleye were caught between Sugar Island and Grosse Ile and off the Ford Yacht Club by those hand-lining or jigging.  
  • St. Clair River:  Walleye fishing remains very good for those jigging or trolling bottom bouncers and crawler harnesses. Walleye have been caught in the mouth of both the Middle and the South Channels. At Port Huron, white bass are starting to show up.
