I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

Water is still to cold there oldjigger. Last time I checked it was only about 39 degrees. once it hits the mid 40s things should start happening. Guys are getting out but no numbers yet. 1 to 4 fish for 2 to 3hrs work. Hopefully this warm weather sticks around and the sun stays out for more than a cpl days at a time to warm that water up.
Carpe Diem

Depending on weather, I may know better somewhat soon, but not until next weekend ;D

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

Since i work at a factory along the river  The water temp at our river water intake was 47 degrees as of 4-8. Because of the weather hardly any boats going out of the Wyandotte boat launch.
Observed few boats off of the island off of Ecorse on the east side.
No one on the Canadian by Fighting Island.

They're starting to make their move right now. My buddy has been catching "some". He lives in Southgate and get's out quite bit.
they caught 24+ lbs Sunday in a tournament. I think the winning sack was 27 lbs with a 12 something kicker!
It will only get better from here on out. As long as the water stays clear.

Caught two walleyes and a musky yesterday. Talked to guys at the ramp and everyone was saying the same story - not getting limits but they are biting a little. The water is muddy, find some clear water and fish it. At the mouth of the river into St. Clair the boats were fishing a stretch of clear water that was right in the middle of the river. We pulled one from there. Went down to the Belle Isle bridge and fished closer to shore. Picked up a big female there and the musky.

Water temp is in the low 40's - a week or two more and things might really get going, heat it up a little and let the water clear up a bit.

Sweet!

Getting the boat ready!
Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

went out today Fished from the mouth of LSC down to The joe. It was tough controlling the boat but managed but all in all pretty good day got 4 walleye all Good eater size and also caught a nice smallie on the golden rule it was 4 12 but I would say it was well over 5 . all in all not a bad day water temp still cold in the mouth of the river 39 degrees.
