What would be your month of choice in the summer for a trip to Lake St. Clair; June, July or August? I know somebody will say October. That wasn't one of the options Thanks in advance.

I jig the Detroit River until at least July 4th, sometimes longer, then switch to casting the lake. I've seen the lake turn on a little slower with high water in the past so with the near record levels we've got now I'd wait until mid to late July at least. One additional June option is to cast around weeds up in Anchor Bay though. If you are wanting to fish the Ontario side though, the later the better. Fall is fantastic too...

it's funny most of all the musky fingerling have been released at usa with us money and then you have to pay to catch them on the canadian side with canadian money and canadian fishing license ,i guess that's the kind of reason why m trump is sick of the free trade agreement muhaaa

i was sure it have been heavily stocked in the past .it's awesome to see so much fish on a lake with that much pressure and some highly questionable release technic like the torpedo.anyway mortality is not always a bad thing, if there is too much fish per sm you get smaller fish,and can even result with various health trouble

According to the Michigan DNR stocking database LSC hasn't been stocked with any fish species.

As for questionable release techniques the ones that bother me are the release techniques practiced by the walleye & perch guys that cry about musky eating all their fish. Some of their techniques include slamming musky on the side of their boat, clubbing them over the head, cutting their gills etc.

Most trollers have a release tank with flowing water that they revive the fish in prior to release so when they are torpedoed in they normally swim away just fine.
