 I was @ Grand Lake w McCarter this weekend in Presque Island area. Water temps were 55-57. shallower lake though the fish were up and i Think some were bedding but it was windy and couldnt see more than 4 ft deep.

I am going up May 29 30 31 I can get an idea when im up there.Thought about hitting Bellaire Skeg Green Platte Long Elk Torch just to name a few.I thought about going up to Burt and Mullett but figured there would be alot of practicing going on at that time. I hope I will be timing it about right.I dont care if the are prespawn or spawn just dont want post spawn.My wife is going me and I want her to catch some big spawners!!!! ;D :o

was on burt and mullet on sunday.  Saw onw smallie and no beds on burt.   WEnt to mullet saw lots of beds and saw a few in the process of spawning.  Some beds were sa deep as 20'.  Biggest bass was 19.5" weighed 4-14.  water temp was on average 57.5 in both lakes.

So is what I gather is that they should be absolutely dead nuts on when I get to traverse city with my wife..Friday sat and sun. Full moon is coming next weekend so males should be on nests and females will hopefully close by and full of eggs....hope they didnt drop them yet. ;D

Water is that clear.  I'm sure there are beds that are deeper but didn't want to send camera down as time was tight.
