In late May and early June large numbers of big Lake St-Clair perch are feeding off shore. You can often find fish while side scanning deep expanses that are highlighted with sand spots with small short weed tuffs sprinkled in. The best way to target these spooky fish is with forward facing sonar as schools are constantly shifting and moving with pressure from both angling pressure as well as predators. 20’ deep is a good rule to start and look for schools of lake walleye in the area. If you find the walleye you will find the schools of big jumbos as we are all there for the same reason.
