# Lake St. Clair Fishing Report
Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Sunday morning fishing report for Lake St. Clair. Let's dive right in.
We're in the thick of winter smallmouth season here on the Clair, and conditions are looking solid. According to the Lake St. Clair Michigan Fishing Report, wintertime smallmouth are absolutely dominating right now. You're looking at average bags in the 20 to 24-pound range, with catches over 25 pounds very possible for serious anglers.
Speaking of recent action, Michael Neal absolutely went off on the Clair, stacking up 36 bass for 120 pounds and 13 ounces. That's the kind of bite we're seeing when conditions line up properly.
Here's what's working: flipping, punching with heavy weights on 65-pound braid, and frogging in the shallows are your bread and butter. Jighead minnows are proving to be top-tier winter bait this season—don't overlook them. Largemouth fishing can get you 75 to 100 bites a day in the vegetation, but if you want to cash checks, you need those brown fish.
For your hotspots, focus on the shallow bay areas with heavy vegetation and laydowns. The rim of the bay and river systems are where the magic happens this time of year.
The solunar tables show your best bite windows this morning: minor bite from 7:04 to 9:04 a.m. and major bite from 12:15 to 2:15 p.m.
Get your gear ready before you leave the dock. Thanks for tuning in to today's report. Make sure you subscribe for daily updates on the best fishing in Michigan. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
