# Lake St. Clair Ice Fishing Report

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure coming at you with your Saturday morning Lake St. Clair fishing report.

We're in the thick of winter ice fishing season on the Clair, and conditions are absolutely prime right now. Michigan's cold temperatures have locked in solid ice, and that means some fantastic opportunities if you know where to look.

The perch bite has been active out there this week. According to recent reports from the ice, anglers have been connecting consistently, though you'll need to stay mobile and keep adapting your presentation throughout the day. Walleye are also in the picture—folks have been hooking into some quality fish when they're committed to putting in the time. Pike are out there too for those looking for something with some teeth.

Here's what's working: light tackle with live bait is your bread and butter. Jigging with live shiners under the ice produces solid results. For artificial lures, smaller spoons and jigs in white and natural colors have been the go-to choice. Don't sleep on tip-ups either—they'll help you cover more water while you're jigging elsewhere on the ice.

Lake St. Clair is known as the walleye capital of the world, so you're fishing premier walleye water. If you're heading out, focus on the deeper holes and channels where fish congregate in winter. The eastern end near the shallower flats tends to hold perch, while walleye prefer the deeper structures.

One heads up: if you happen to hook into a lake sturgeon out there—and it happens—get it back in the water immediately. They're a protected species and require quick release, especially in this cold.

Thanks for tuning in! Make sure you subscribe for daily updates on the Clair and surrounding waters.
