Lake St. Clair Is A Trophy Fish Factory
Recently, Robbie and Lee from the YouTube channel Today’s Angler and Lee Lures embarked on a Musky trip to the legendary waters of Lake St Clair. Along the way, the two teamed up with a group Michigan musky hammers while documenting their journey along the way.
In the three-part ‘Ocean Of Muskies‘ series, you’ll see the ups and downs of chasing big fish in big water.
Part of the great lakes system, Lake St Clair is the 15th largest lake in North America. It’s is connected to Lake Huron by the St. Clair River to the north and to Lake Erie through the Detroit River to the south. Over 430 surface total surface miles, Lake St Clair is mega lake loaded with nutrient-rich water capable of producing world-class fish.
