3 NOV 2024 · As of November 3rd, 2024, Lake St. Clair is transitioning into its fall fishing pattern, which promises some exciting angling opportunities. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
### Weather and Tidal Conditions
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 55°F and a low of 45°F, making it a comfortable day for fishing. Since Lake St. Clair is a freshwater lake connected to the Great Lakes system, it does not have significant tidal changes, but water levels can fluctuate slightly due to wind and other factors.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:43 AM, and sunset is at 5:53 PM, providing a good window for both morning and evening fishing.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been steady, especially for smallmouth bass. As the water temperatures drop, these bass are starting to school up tighter, particularly around the shipping channel and the Mile Roads area. Anglers have also reported catching walleye, musky, and catfish in various parts of the lake.
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Yesterday, anglers caught a mix of species. Smallmouth bass were abundant in the 15 to 16-foot depths, halfway out to the shipping channel and around the yacht club area. Walleye were caught near buoy 12 in the shipping channel in about 45 feet of water. Musky and catfish were also reported, with musky being caught at night using various lures.
### Best Lures and Bait
For smallmouth bass, using live bait like crawlers or minnows, along with soft plastics and jigs, has been effective. For walleye, crawlers and jigs have worked well. Musky anglers have had success with magnum spoons and j-plugs, especially during low light conditions.
### Hot Spots
- **Shipping Channel**: This area has been hot for walleye, musky, and smallmouth bass.
- **Mile Roads Area**: Known for its smallmouth bass, this spot is particularly good as the fish school up in the cooler water.
- **Yacht Club Area**: Another good spot for smallmouth bass, with fish holding in slightly deeper waters.
- **North Channel**: Fishing at night in this area has yielded some nice catches of smallmouth bass and other species.
Overall, Lake St. Clair is offering a diverse and active fishery as we move into the fall season. With the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should have a productive day on the water.

2 NOV 2024 · As of November 2, 2024, here’s a detailed fishing report for Lake St. Clair, Michigan.
### Weather and Tidal Conditions
Today, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 55°F and a low of 45°F. Winds will be moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10-15 mph. Given Lake St. Clair’s location, tidal influences are minimal, but water levels can fluctuate slightly due to wind and river flow.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise is at 7:43 AM, and sunset will be at 5:53 PM, providing a decent window for both morning and evening fishing trips.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been steady, especially for species like walleye, yellow perch, and smallmouth bass. Yesterday, anglers reported catching a good number of walleyes, particularly in the deeper areas of the lake. Yellow perch were also active, especially around the weed beds and drop-offs.
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Yesterday saw a mix of catches, with walleyes ranging from 15 to 22 inches, and yellow perch averaging 8-12 inches. Smallmouth bass were also caught, mostly in the 2-4 pound range. Rock bass and silver bass were also reported in smaller numbers.
### Best Lures and Bait
For walleyes, jigging with minnows or using crankbaits in shad patterns have been effective. Yellow perch are biting well on small jigs tipped with maggots or tiny minnows. Smallmouth bass are responding to soft plastics like curly tail grubs and crankbaits in natural colors.
### Hot Spots
- **Anchor Bay**: Known for its walleye and perch fishing, this area has been producing consistent catches.
- **Harsens Island**: This spot is a favorite for smallmouth bass and walleye, especially around the island's rocky shores and weed beds.
- **Metro Beach**: This area has seen a lot of activity for rock bass and silver bass, and it's also a good spot for catching walleyes.

1 NOV 2024 · As of November 1st, fishing on Lake St. Clair is transitioning into the fall season, and the conditions are quite dynamic.
### Weather and Tidal Report
The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 55°F and a low of 45°F. Winds are moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10-15 mph. Since Lake St. Clair is a freshwater lake connected to the Great Lakes system, it does not have tides, but water levels can fluctuate slightly due to wind and other environmental factors.
### Sunrise and Sunset
Sunrise today is at 7:43 AM, and sunset is at 5:53 PM, giving anglers a good window to get out on the water.
### Fish Activity
Fish activity has been varied as the season changes. Walleye, which were more active in the summer, are now spreading out into deeper waters, particularly on the Canadian side of the lake. However, there are still plenty of walleye to be found in areas like "The Dumping Grounds" and the heavy weed beds.
Perch fishing has been a bit of a roller coaster due to the recent weather fluctuations. Anglers have reported finding perch in shallow waters, especially around the 26 Can and the mouth of the South Channel. Using slip bobbers and fishing near pencil reeds and weed lines can be effective.
Smallmouth bass are also active, often found in the same areas as perch, particularly in the cuts and shallow waters. Liv scope technology has been helping anglers locate larger schools of bait fish, which in turn helps in finding the bass.
### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
Yesterday, anglers reported catching a mix of fish including walleye, perch, smallmouth bass, and even some sturgeon. The sturgeon catches have been notable, with the Michigan DNR recently reporting a large sturgeon measuring 75.2 inches and weighing 125 pounds.
### Best Lures and Bait
For walleye, jigging with minnows or using crankbaits in deeper waters has been effective. For perch, small jigs tipped with minnows or maggots work well. Smallmouth bass are responding to soft plastics and crankbaits, especially in the shallower areas.
### Hot Spots
- **The Dumping Grounds**: Known for its walleye and perch fishing, this area remains a hotspot even in the fall.
- **Mouth of the South Channel**: This area is good for perch and smallmouth bass, especially in the shallow waters and weed lines.
- **Harsens Island**: This island offers good fishing spots for various species, including walleye and smallmouth bass.
Remember to check the local fishing regulations and ensure you have the necessary Michigan Recreational Passport if you plan to launch your boat at a DNR ramp. Enjoy your time on the water
