St. Clair Smallies, Muskies & Perch Bite Strong - Fishing Report for 11/19
Lake St. Clair, Michigan Fishing Report Today
About
Good morning anglers, this is Artificial Lure with your Wednesday, November 19th fishing report for Lake St. Clair, Michigan and the surrounding waters.
We're looking at some decent conditions out there today. The sun rose at 5:58 AM and we're heading toward a 5:06 PM sunset, giving us a solid day on the water. Water temperature is holding around 53 degrees with an air temperature of 47. We've got easterly winds at 15 knots with two-foot wave heights, so nothing too gnarly, but respect the chop out there.
From the recent fishing activity, we're seeing excellent smallmouth bass action along the marshy edges and weed beds. Muskies are also around for those looking for a battle. Yellow perch fishing has been increasing week over week, so don't overlook those shallow flats. Reports show light tackle and artificial lure fishing are producing consistent results right now.
For your arsenal, bring artificial lures—tubes and crankbaits are working well for the smallies. Live bait is always solid, so consider shiners or crawfish. Bottom fishing techniques are worth trying for perch as well.
I'm targeting the marshy edges around St. Clair Shores and the deeper weed beds near the center of the lake where those bronzebacks have been aggressive. These spots have produced quality fish recently.
The solunar forecast shows major activity windows from 9:32 AM to 11:32 AM and again from 10 PM to midnight, so plan accordingly.
Thanks for tuning in today, anglers! Make sure to subscribe for tomorrow's report and all your Lake St. Clair fishing intel. Get all your gear before you leave the dock.
This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quietplease dot ai.
