5/5/15, Saginaw Bay, Au Gres, Fishing Report

After a day off the water, clients from the Atlanta, MI area joined me for a day of walleye fishing on the Bay. We had a cold front come though the area yesterday and there were showers and storms from Bay City south all day today, but we never felt a drop of water all day fishing near Au Gres. The weatherman did predict sunny skies, but we had fully cloudy conditions all day with blue skies visible to the north throughout the trip, but those fair skies never blessed us with any sunshine. We hit four widely separated areas today looking for a concentration of active fish and never really found a hot spot. We did however catch walleyes in all but the the first spot we fished, and my clients managed to catch their limits of walleyes along with one bonus, jumbo persh, but it took most of an eight hour charter to accomplish that goal. We fished shallow and we fished deep water today, but the frontal boundary had the fish in a negative mood and they just wouldn't bite much at all. Even a slow day on Saginaw Bay though is much better than most of Michigan waters on a banner day of fishing. My customers today, one of which has been fishing with me for over 10 years, told me that they had a great time and that is what it's all about.
