Thought we should have a topic like we have in years past of updated water temps if people hear any reports of our lakes across the state.

Should be helpful especially with a match day for those of us participating in it.

I have current temps I heard yesterday on the following lakes.

Feel free to post updates if anyone has them.. I fish mostly local so doesn't look like I'll be out much for a while unless we get some cooler weather.

Bankson : 86
Macatawa : as of 7/27 the main basin was 80, could be higher over the next couple days. It has heated up quick in the last couple weeks.

Mac was 81, even the big lake was 78 today.

I won't be out again for a while for that and other reasons.

Crap…looks like my Sunday plans aren't going to involve fishing.

Thanks for the updates. Anyone have recent temps for St. Clair?

I was bass fishing Murray Wednesday and temps were 83.5 getting down to 82.8 as the sun went down. Did see a mid thirties fish up in the shallows when we were casting at the docks.

Middle of ST clair 74-78

This is stuff with muskies I would fish without hesitation, as has been said many other waters are very hot right now.

Muskegon lake 7/30

East end 73-75 West end and channel 76-77

Having a SW Michigan lake fed by a big tailwater river is gonna be a great option in hot summers when the muskies grow up. Pulled a meals worth of crappies out of some sunken brush in 20 FOW, and caught about 30 bass.

I was on Duck Lake in Calhoun county Sunday morning & water temps were about 76. I know it's supposed to heat back up the end of the week again to the low 90's.

Mac is 80ish again after a few day cool off. Imagine our inland lakes are still toasty if Mac is that warm

Just talked to a friend that fishes the UP a lot, and he said McKeever was at 80 in the morning last friday or saturday… He was going to carry in to big island, but after seeing that just called it a day.

Hamlin 78 or less as of Monday. Didn't get out last night because the storm after work didn't fizzle.

Emily was 79 last week in Iron County. Paint impoundment above Crystal was in the low to mid 70s, but Paint Pond down around Florence was pushing 80.
