I'm looking to fish one of these bodies of water for the first time this season and was wondering which one might be better for a shot at a 50" plus fish? I know that both are excellent fisheries. I plan on going with a guide so any recommendations there would be appreciated too.

St. Claire w/ Matt "Catfish" Firestein (Whopper Stopper Musky Charters). He put my buddy on his 1st (2) 50"+ in two trips out. Definitely knows the entire lake and is a great guy to spend a day with and learn. Check him out: http://www.whopperstoppermuskycharters.com/

They are both great, but if you chose Green Bay reach out to Ryan Grant. I fish with him a couple times a year and he really knows the bay. PM me for his contact info.

I live 15 miles from Green Bay, and I have also spent 6 days on Lsc. I would definitely say that Lsc is the trip you should take if you want a chance at a 50+.... Hit up Mike Hulbert

I talked to "Catfish" at the Chitcago Musky Expo and he would be tips on my list to fish LSC with. Seems like a good guy in general as well as a good fisherman. Thanks for the feedback guys!

Any time of the year better out there? Prefer to cast vs. troll. Seen pics and videos of big fish caught casting all times of the year though.

If you haven't ever experienced a hot trolling bite on LSC, you might want to not rule it out. Been out there before with the rod going off 20 times in a day and it can be pretty exciting...

I've fished both. I'd lean more towards Lsc...it has lots of action plus a shot every day at a 50" or multiple 50s. The only downfall is the at the area is extremely ghetto. Gb has some mega tankers in it and if there's a hot a hot bite multiple big fish can get caught....It's also very easy to get skunked...

GB will be less crowded, which will make for a more enjoyable experience.
