[tpet96]

Does anyone have a report on Maumee River eyes? Water temps, clarity, lures used....quality of fish? Thanks in advance.<br><br>

[tpet96]

Heading up in the morning. Will post how we do.<br><br>

Fished today for about 4 hrs. No luck what so ever. Only saw a couple snagged. I think the fish were in there, just moved off into deeper water. We'll see what happends when the river comes up and the temps warm up.<br><br>

The warmer day today and with the storms going through tonight, just might fit the bill. Temps look like they won't be changed with this front. (for a change). I think if we get a couple more days like today the fish will start coming up out of the deep. I saw 4 jon boats on lake rupert today but the anglers that I talked to said that the fishing is still not good. A couple of hits but no takers. I think I will wait another couple of weeks to hit the water.<br><br>Texas Gulf Coast Fisher.

The river has been in flood stage all week. Muddy and high. Things are starting to come down now. Unfortunately I can't make it back up there until next Saturday. I will likely give it a shot then. Going to meet up with a few other GFO members.<br><br>

What river(s) have you been fishing in MI? <br><br>

[davetclown]

this year I have been on the head waters of the Huron River that is where I live and the head watters of the Rouge Rever.<br><br>so far I have bulled in some nice crappie out of the Huron<br>and a 17 inch Bass from the Rouge. The bass whent back in the water for future action. <br><br>I have fished the Asaubo - Detroit - Saginaw - and the St Clair Rivers.<br><br>http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/MESS6438/ <br>Lookie See what the kids are up to.<br>Dave T.

Is there much in the way of shore fishing on the Detroit for 'eyes? Or is it all pretty much boat fishing? I have crossed the Huron a couple of times, and it looks like a GREAT steelheading river. <br><br>

there is a 4 day walleye tournament going on, on the river this weekend.<br><br>there is a cou[ple of places that I know of on the river you can get on to fish for them.<br><br>get your map of Detroit out open it up all the way. (a city map is best)<br><br>at the beginning of the river where Lake St Clair comes in to the river there is a camp ground you can camp and fish from. but it is better to camp there and go over to Belle Isle to the canadian side there is a board walk by the coast gard station where you can fish for them. all though you can fish for them from just about any shore line on the island.<br><br>A spot closser to the Ohio Boarder is Wyondotte.<br>look at the map of Wyondotte.<br>look for Southfeild Road where it comes to the river and dead ends there is a board walk there you can fish off to catch walleye.<br><br><br>http://myweb.ecomplanet.com/MESS6438/ <br>Lookie See what the kids are up to.<br>Dave T.
