As summer sets in the vast majority of big St-Clair Smallmouth move off shore in 18-22’ of water. The biggest fish are targeting perch around taller clumps of cabbage that are close to sand spots. Identifying a number of these areas with side and down imaging and creating a milk run of high percentage targets can yield excellent tournament results.
