Detroit River: A few boat anglers were out fishing the canals. Some nice bluegills were caught on a jig and wax worm in the marinas. Some perch and crappie also were caught, but anglers were sorting through the small perch.
Lake St. Clair: Has thin ice in most of the canals and marinas. Ice thickness is highly variable ranging from skim to maybe 1.5 inches, so the ice is not safe. All the docks are out, and the protected launches are iced in. The Harley Ensign launch is iced in as well after overnight winds shifted and blew the ice in. Warm temperatures predicted for the weekend will not help ice formation.
