    Got some great underwater footage of the smallmouth bass roaming the rock piles on legendary Lake St Clair! Water temps have been rising and were in the mid 60s. Air temps for the morning were in the low 50s, but were in the high 60s by noon. The winds we coming out of the northeast, pushing us along the shoreline in a southeastern drift. We were dragging tubes and drop shots, but the were only biting on swimbaits. The Keitech Swing Impact FAT in the smallmouth magic color caught us some nice smallies. The Shimano FC line in 12lb test casts very smooth with no memory or backlash issues. Slow retrieve combined with some burining to cover water got their attention.

    The water temperature at the beginning of the week had shot past 60 degrees, but with a recent storm and cold front the water temps dropped just below. Winds were at about 12MPH making for a tough go. Air temps were in the low 50s. Slinging swimbaits in a basin that shielded us from the winds a bit seemed to be what the smallmouth wanted. Slow retrieve just off bottom got their attention. Several 4lb smallmouth and walleye were caught on the swimbait.
