Switch of the Season

Well August has come and gone and left us with some great fishing days on Lake St. Clair. We have been chasing the Muskies as well as the Bass this past month and have had some great success with both species.
The Muskies have been chasing the bait around the lake and with the weather that we have had that the bait was getting blown around quite a bit. The weeds also reeked their havoc with us and making us work hard for the Muskies caught.
We have still had a 7 Muskie average caught this past month and have also had many days with double digits caught. We boated over 3 Muskie in the 30 Pound Club and welcome and congratulate those new members!

The Bass fishing charters have averaged 4 dozen per trip. We have had days with fewer numbers but the quality has been awesome. We boated many Bass over the 4 to 5 pound mark and caught 2 Small Mouth Bass over 6 pounds.
September starts the Fall fishing season and usually brings some weather changes that can be both good and bad. We expect the Muskie fishing to continue to be great as we have not had our full dose of summer yet!

We will be fishing for Muskie through the end of October and will transition to chasing the Monsters as Fall approaches (not that we ever stop hunting the trophy Muskie)!
We will be also starting our Perch trips this month as they have been starting to school up a bit. We have been catching quite a few during our Bass charters lately so the time has come to fill the freezer with fresh lake perch.

We are starting our Sturgeon charters this month as well. If you have not yet experienced the trill of battling a prehistoric River Monster, then book your Sturgeon trip now!
We hope this finds everyone well and look forward to hearing from you and getting you out fishing this Fall.

Tight Lines,
Capt. Kevin Backus
