  • Lake St. Clair Fishing Forecast: Smallies, Walleye, and Musky Opportunities Abound
    Jun 22 2025
    Lake St. Clair is shaping up for another red-hot weekend on the water. As of June 22nd, 2025, the bite is strong and conditions are lining up for a full slate of productive fishing. Sunrise hit at 5:54 AM and sunset is scheduled for 9:16 PM, setting you up for long hours on the lake. There’s no tidal fluctuation here, but the water clarity varies—finding that perfect off-colored water can make all the difference in your catch rate, especially under today’s projected partly cloudy skies and a mid-morning breeze cooling things off.

    Smallmouth bass are still close to shore, with many just finishing the spawn. Reports from Anchor Bay, the mile roads, and Selfridge show anglers landing quality smallies, mostly in 7 to 10 feet of water, but don’t overlook deeper stretches (15 to 17 feet) along the mile roads. Brown and green goby-style lures have been the go-to for bass, but don't ignore finesse baits like flat worms and tube jigs. In fact, a few locals have had banner mornings with Great Lakes Finesse 2.5” Juvy Craws and dropshot rigs.

    Walleye are spread throughout the lake. Anglers are trolling crawler harnesses off Metropark in 7 feet, but bigger fish are coming from deeper waters off the east side of the channel, near buoys in 20 to 30 feet. Swimbaits and jigs tipped with live shiners or nightcrawlers continue to produce, and activity is picking up after dusk and at first light. According to Spreaker’s June 20th update, limits are consistent around the mouth of the St. Clair River and the south channel, while others are pulling harnesses and jigging in both the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers for those last-chance walleyes.

    Don’t overlook muskellunge if you’re feeling ambitious: The Salt River area in Anchor Bay is giving up musky in 8 feet of water—big baits and patience are the recipe here.

    As for hot spots, this week your best bets are:
    - Anchor Bay for bass and musky, especially near the Salt River.
    - The east side of the shipping channel and off the Metropark point for walleye.
    - The mile roads and Selfridge for quality smallmouth action, especially with goby imitations and finesse rigs.

    Today’s weather is stable, water temps holding in the low 70s, and the fish are hungry. Whether you’re casting or trolling, focus on areas with good weed growth and slightly stained water for your best shot at a mixed bag. Don’t forget, evening and early morning sessions are pulling the bigger bites.

  • Hotspots, Bites, and Transition Zones - Your Lakeside Fishing Report for Lake St. Clair
    Jun 21 2025
    Lake St. Clair delivered classic early summer action today, June 21st, with warm temps, light southwest winds, and a sunrise at 5:55 AM, setting up a full day of angling opportunity. The lake was glassy at sunrise but picked up a light chop this afternoon, making for perfect “bass chop” conditions. Sunset tonight is at 9:13 PM, so there’s plenty of daylight left to get after it.

    Let’s talk fish activity—smallmouth bass are transitioning off the beds but still tight to structure and vegetation, especially near the shorelines and on the flats in 6-12 feet. On The Water with Smallmouth Heaven reported that the bite was steady in the early morning hours and again toward dusk, with plenty of quality smallmouth landed using topwater lures and finesse rigs. Ned rigs in green pumpkin, tube baits, and swimbaits produced consistent bites, especially when worked slow along the edge of submerged weeds. Anglers dropping Great Lakes Finesse 2.5” Juvy Craws and classic Ned rigs found the bass ready to pounce, especially when the bait mimicked a fleeing crayfish just off bottom.

    Walleye anglers had success off the Metropark point in about 7 feet, trolling crawler harnesses with spinners in chartreuse and purple. The nighttime swimbait and drop-shot crew also did well, with a few chunky walleyes reported in the evening hours, especially deeper out toward the channels according to local anglers and the latest DNR updates.

    Perch and the odd pike have been showing with regularity, especially in Anchor Bay and around the mouth of the Clinton River. Minnow-tipped jigs and small spinners are still your best bet for perch, while flashy spoons and jerkbaits are enticing plenty of pike.

    If you’re looking for true hotspots, focus on:
    - Anchor Bay for mixed bag action—bass, perch, and the odd walleye cruising the flats.
    - Metropark point, especially for early morning or late evening walleye activity on harnesses and soft plastics.
    - The St. Clair channels, where cooler inflows attract bigger bass and keep the predator fish active. Work those transition zones where river water meets lake water for the hottest bite.

    As for bait and presentation, finesse is still the name of the game for bass. Topwater lures like walk-the-dog stickbaits and popping frogs are already getting attention at dawn and dusk. For multispecies action, keep crawler harnesses and small crankbaits handy, especially as the water continues to warm and more fish push deeper.

    That’s the latest from your friend on the water, Artificial Lure. Thanks for tuning in, folks—don’t forget to subscribe for more local fishing insights. This has been a Quiet Please production; for more, check out quietplease.ai.

  • Lake St. Clair Fishing Report: Smallmouth Bass Dominate, Walleye and Perch Bite Strong
    Jun 21 2025
    Good morning anglers, Artificial Lure here with your Lake St. Clair fishing report for Saturday, June 21st, 2025. With sunrise at 5:54 a.m. and sunset at 9:14 p.m., we’re looking at a long window to get lines wet. Lake St. Clair isn’t tidal, so you don’t have to worry about incoming or outgoing tides, but pay close attention to wind—today’s light breeze out of the southwest should keep conditions fishable across most of the lake, with water temps right around 70-72 degrees.

    Smallmouth bass are the main story again this week. According to the Michigan DNR’s June 11th report, fair numbers of smallies are being caught, with some still on beds and others already pushing deeper as the post-spawn transition continues. The best action is still close to shore, especially in areas with submerged vegetation. Reports from Omnia Fishing highlight Ned rigs in green pumpkin, swim jigs, and lipless crankbaits working well along weed edges and open water. A Ned rig paired with a finesse craw or the Z-Man Finesse TRD is putting up good numbers, especially early in the morning and during overcast periods.

    If you’re after walleyes, Captain Experiences notes a solid bite, especially on jigs tipped with shiners or imitation soft plastics. Swimbaits are producing well for walleye, especially in the evenings and at night. The Detroit and St. Clair rivers remain consistent, but plenty of freezer-filling eyes are still being found along the edge of the channels and flats.

    For perch, nightcrawlers and minnows under a slip bobber are steady producers, particularly around the Metropark and Strawberry Island. There are also reports of catfish and bowfin in the mix—don’t be surprised if you tie into one of these brutes while perch fishing.

    Now, for hot spots—Anchor Bay is a sure bet for both smallmouth and largemouth bass action right now, with fish tight to cover and in transition zones. St. Clair Shores is holding a lot of bass and some bonus pike, perfect if you want variety. For multispecies action, try the mouth of the channels where the St. Clair River dumps into the lake; you’ll find bass, walleye, and the occasional muskie lurking.

    Best baits for today:
    - Smallmouth: Ned rigs, swim jigs, tube jigs, and finesse craws.
    - Walleye: Swimbaits, jigs with shiners, and blade baits.
    - Perch: Nightcrawlers, minnows.
    - Bonus: Don’t overlook drop shot rigs for deeper post-spawn bass.

    That’s the scoop for June 21st on Lake St. Clair. Thanks for tuning in—don’t forget to subscribe for your next local update. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
