  • Summary

  • As of November 22, 2024, here’s a local’s perspective on the fishing conditions at Lake St. Clair, Michigan.

    First off, the weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with temperatures ranging from the mid-30s to mid-40s Fahrenheit, which is typical for this time of year. Sunrise was at around 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at about 4:50 PM.

    Tidal conditions, although not as critical for inland lakes like Lake St. Clair, are influenced by the water levels of the connecting Great Lakes. Currently, water levels are stable, but it's always a good idea to check local reports for any changes.

    Yesterday's fishing reports indicated a decent day for anglers. Fish activity has been steady, particularly for walleye and perch. Several anglers reported catching a good number of walleyes, with some reaching up to 20 inches in length. Perch were also plentiful, with many anglers filling their limits.

    For walleye, the best lures to use right now are jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers. Some anglers have also had success with crankbaits, especially those that mimic baitfish. For perch, small jigs with maggots or tiny crankbaits are working well.

    Hot spots include the areas around Harsens Island and the channels near Anchor Bay. These spots have been producing consistent results for both walleye and perch. Another good spot is the Mile Roads, especially for smallmouth bass, although the bass activity has slowed down a bit with the colder temperatures.

    Remember to check your gear before you head out, as the colder weather can affect your equipment. Also, be mindful of the changing weather conditions, as wind and rain can quickly alter fishing conditions on Lake St. Clair.

    Overall, it's a great time to get out on the water and enjoy some fall fishing on Lake St. Clair.
