I went Wednesday and only got 2 largemouth. Had 4 break offs. Pike i'm guessing. I wanted to drop shot but the guy with me didn't want to. Water temp was 53 degrees. Water was still pretty muddy.

I'm new to the site and have been out on the west side of grose ile a few times with no luck. Just a few silver bass. Any tips for fishing around grose ile?

Flipping the docks after the spawn is over, east side of grosse ile is better than west

Bass are really starting to turn on in the river . Back water areas were 60 deg , (thursday) stick baits , dropshot , senkos . Largemouth and Smallies both biting , by this weekend they will be on the beds . I think the spawn will be short and all the fish will be on at the same time .

This time of year the shallow flats on the west side of the north end of Grosse Isle (across from Wyandotte) are loaded with Silver Bass.
