Go Tom Brady. It's hard to pick from these 2 teams but Brady is a MI man so let's go with the Pats. Hopefully a close game with action on some squares is in your future. The super bowl comes every year at about the same time just like taxes. This year however is special because of the weather.
The first day of the 2012 fishing season in the Detroit River? From the reports I'm getting the fish are biting. Well biting as hard as they can in 37 degree water. But the fish are there and willing if you can find them and you can find them in your boat this year because of the weather we've had. It may still get cold for a while but ice formation should be held back allowing boat fishing in the river for the rest of winter.
Some parts of the river always freeze allowing icefishing, like Airport Bay on he south end of Grs Isle, but the big problem for river fishing by boat is the ice flows coming down from Lake St. Clair. I'm sure there'll be so ice coming down like Car fixer John found out last week heading over to Duffy's in Amherstburg, Canada. His group got thru the hole in the wall but couldn't get to Duffy's because of an ice flow dam.
So be carefull out there and call your local bait shop for reports, that's all the papers do. You can get all the numbers in my bait shop link. The other link is MI-sportsman.com, near the bottom, check this site for the river forum. GT Charters is catching perch on their outings and some reports from the river state they're catching walleyes. Hopefully a long season for walleye fishing in the river is in order following last spring's horibble waether and low catch rate.
Get Outdoors Downriver.
Hopefully everybody does good out there! We know a few people in that area and want to say; "Good luck out there!"
