Looks like I will finally get a chance to get out Muskie fishing for the 1st time this year Embarassed (this is the longest it's ever been for me). I'm planning to head to LSC. I don't know that I've ever fished LSC in August before, so this is a new experience for me. Does anyone have any suggestions on general areas to try? I prefer to cast, but will troll if it's a much better option. Is the Detroit River worth hitting this time of year? I've fished the North Channel and the sni in Sept. and later, but never this early. Thanks!!

This coming weekend?? If the coldfront comes in as strong as they're predicting the fish that are now in the channels are probably going to move back into the bay.

I can either go this weekend or next week sometime. It looks like weather-wise, that Sat. would be a good choice. Do you agree? Waves don't sound too bad either (1-2 footers predicted). If the fish move into the bay I would assume that areas of the bay closer to the channels would be a good choice. Should I look for weeds, or should I be trolling for supended fish relating to baitfish? If not Saturday, I'd probably wait until next Thurs. or Fri. Thanks for any advice you have.

The coldfront didn't come in as strong as originally predicted. The fish should be in normal summer areas near and in the channels.

The trolling fish are out in mid-lake S of Firecracker and east of the dumping grounds.

Thanks Will!! I'll probably work the North Channel, a couple parts of the Sni, and maybe the Middle Channel if time permits. I'll post a report after. Couldn't hardly sleep last night.
