Fishing Report: Stellar Smallmouth and Walleye Action on Lake St. Clair

Hey there, folks It's your buddy Artificial Lure here with the latest fishing report for Lake St. Clair, Michigan. As of today, June 13, 2025, we're experiencing some fantastic conditions for both bass and walleye action. The water temperatures are hovering in the low 60s, which is perfect for getting those smallmouth bass fired up. First off, let's talk about the weather. It's a beautiful morning with the sunrise happening around 5:58 AM, and sunset scheduled for about 9:03 PM. Now, I know what you're thinking—what about the tidal report? Well, Lake St. Clair doesn't have true tidal changes like the ocean, but recent wind patterns have kept some of the eastern shorelines a bit stained. However, the water clarity is rebounding nicely. As for fish activity, smallmouth bass are still the stars of the show. Anglers are catching a lot of them in the 2- to 4-pound range, with some bigger ones being reported as well. The action is particularly good around Anchor Bay, Ford Cove, and Metropark Beach. If you're looking for numbers, this is your moment—bass are hitting both swimbaits and finesse rigs, with the Great Lakes Finesse Juvy Craw and Sneaky Underspin swimbait getting plenty of action. For walleye, trolling in the right spots is key. Reports from recent weeks indicate that walleye are being caught while trolling in various depths around Lake St. Clair. If you're looking for some hot spots, I'd recommend checking out **Sturgeon Hole** for those massive sturgeons, and **The Channels** for a mix of bass, walleye, pike, and perch. **Lake St. Clair Metropark** is also a great spot for perch fishing. As for lures and bait, green and yellow soft plastics are working well for smallmouth, and crankbaits or jigs with crawlers are effective for walleye.
