Lake St Clair & Detroit River - Fishing Report May 2023

Detroit River: Walleye anglers were having a fair bit of luck trolling with crawler harnesses and bandits in 7 to 10 feet of water near L anse Creuse Bay and near the Salt River. Other walleye anglers did very well near Gross Point in 6 to 9 feet of water.  Smallmouth bass anglers did well near Metro Beach and near the Veterans Memorial Park in shallow water as well (6 to 9 feet) and had the best luck casting with soft plastics. Chartreuse and orange were hot colors this week. There was also quite a bit of bass action between Gross Point and the mouth of the river. Anglers fishing that location were starting to catch white bass and quite a few caught northern pike. Anglers also hooked a few musky near the Clinton River Cutoff location.
