Up her north of Detroit im usually casting mid march for largemouth and carp depending on the weather. the water levels on Lake St Clair are really down and im sure they are going to have a drastic affect on my early season fly fishing. I have a "go too" canal that was only a few feet deep as it was now its almost dry but im looking forward to getting a line wet all the same. COME ON SPRING!!! talk about seasonal affectivness disorder, i have it bad! everyday is like groundhogs day up here. wake up, its snowy, cold, windy, grey, bla bla bla
