There was a east wind on Lake Erie Saturday. I launched in a harbor and shared it with five other bass boats. I decided to leave after a bit and got wet going down to another harbor a mile down the lake. One other bass boat started there in the morning and parked on the best spot and never left it. I fished some of the other less obvious areas and worked the deeper poles in the middle of the harbor. Majority of yachts were in on the main channels making nearly impossible to cast. I did catch 13 there and most were deep in the middle around polls in 10 feet of water. We both finished there about the same time, and they followed me back in their 19 foot Nitro and said thanks for breaking the waves I did best for my bigger fish in the first harbor. One out of the wood and another along a dock poll. The day went pretty well as I ended up with 21 bass and two over 5 lbs.. When I got to the ramp to load up, there was a piece of driftwood by the dock. Low and behold it had a Whopper Plopper attached to it. Looks brand new. Nice topper to the day. Give you an idea of the chop out on the lake, there was a guy pulled over with his boat as I drove by. I could clearly see he was hunched over puking all over in front of his truck. I guess he didn't handle the waves very well.
This was our first fishing trip of 2023. Strong winds and storms the day prior led into our bluebird fishing day. Come along to see how we stringed some bites together on a tough fishing condition day. Thanks for being part of our community and stayed tuned for more exclusive content from R & J Bass Fishing.

It's about that time of year to start thinking about fishing Lake St. Clair again. I've been holding off on posting this video until we got to March. This trip was really early in the Spring before they started to bed. #stclair #lake #smallmouthbass #smallmouthbassfishing #smallmouth #fishing #bassfishing
