Some anglers were catching a lot of perch, but many were small in size and anglers needed to sort through fish to get larger ones to keep. Yellow perch anglers were fishing from Quanicassee to the Fish Point area. There were a lot of small 5-to-8-inch perch caught. Yellow perch were caught while shore fishing at Finn Road. Saginaw Bay: Walleye were caught while trolling crankbaits at Linwood in 20 feet of water, at the Old Dumping Grounds, at the Sparkplug in 24 feet and in the Crib in 18 feet of water. Most anglers used jigs and the best results were when anglers tipped the jigs with shiners. Anglers ran across the most fish in 23 to 27 feet of water. The best results came from the Trenton channel, the backside of Mud Island, and between the Ambassador Bridge and Belle Isle. Steelheads were caught close to shore on blue and silver Bandits.ĭetroit River: Walleye fishing was spotty over the weekend. Yellow perch were biting on minnows in the channel at the Bolles Harbor access site. Northern pike shore fishing off the point Mouillee access site was good while using crankbaits. Anglers started to see slightly more success while trolling with yellow bandits at slightly slower speeds in semi-shallow water, about 18 feet of water in Brest Bay and near the nuclear power plant, and in about 14 feet of water out from Luna Pier. Fish were marked closer into shore, possibly spawning. A possible explanation for the low catch rate could be that the water was very muddy, caused by high winds. Lake Erie: Fishing on Lake Erie was slow for walleye with majority of anglers coming back empty handed while using both artificial and natural baits. ![]() If anyone wants to meet up pm me and we can plan something.Looking for a new place to fish?

They left it there and we took the foam from inside and caught suckers on that. Someone had brought a bench truck seat and wedged it in the bank. We ran out of sponge, but anything works. One time I brought a few buddies that never fished much and they had a blast. Cut off a chunk the size of your thumbnail and hook it good. ![]() No joke they stock up on sponges in the sucker run at the ONLY store in town. Bring A LOT of small treble hooks and decent size split shot. If you want a little more room instead of shoulder to shoulder go during the week. If you want THE SHOW (fish and people) go the second or third Saturday in april. They used to crown a "sucker queen" on one of the weekends in April. Some people bring campers and stay for days. It's the Rifle river and as you cross over the bridge you will see TONS of people, vehicles parked everywhere, and even a few old school buses. Head North on 75 and get on 23 North and get off at Standish. Normally you get the line of someone on the other side of the river, one opens the bail on thier reel and the other reels in and frees up the lines and tosses the other back for the other guy. Go on the weekends and the crowd is unbelievable, but friendly (it's suckers- not salmon or steelhead) never seen a fight eventhough you WILL cross lines from time to time.
