Lake St. Clair: Ice on the northern end remained relatively stable. The traditional nearshore areas did hold up in the wind. Areas offshore at Brandenburg, Selfridge, Harley Ensign and the Metro Park did open-up over the weekend and extreme caution should be used if venturing too far from shore. The lake is open water from the Clinton River Cutoff south to the Detroit River. This open water will allow the ice to shift and make for dangerous conditions if we get a strong north wind. Bluegill and sunfish were caught at the Raft Restaurant. Though the action was slow, anglers continue to bring in decent quantities and some good size fish. Try a smaller than average size jig with a spike; color was not important. At Selfridge, a few anglers found schools of fish just south of the ramp. Cotton Road has been tricky as anglers were either getting perch or not. Those that did were using jigs tipped with a spike.
