Saginaw Bay Fishing Seasons

January

Temperatures in January can be quite unforgiving, but on a sunny day, you can have a great day on the ice. Solid-sized Walleye and Panfish are in the cards.

February

The ice is still stable on the bay, but be wary of the pressure cracks. The Walleye bite is good, and you could also find Lake Whitefish on your line.

March

In March, the ice can be unstable and soft, so fish with caution. Walleye, Perch, and an occasional Whitefish are swimming around, you just need to attract them to your line.

April

Though the weather is warmer, the water is still quite cold and there’s a lot ice floating around. You can hook smaller Perch, and a Lake Trout and Steelhead here and there.

May

As the temperatures are rising, so are the opportunities to boat more fish. You can find Walleye in the 10’ waters, and Northern Pike and Perch are biting as well.

June

The Walleye are moving to deeper waters, and catching your limit on a day trip is the norm. A crawler harness works best for these fighters. Perch is also active and biting.

July
Fishing in Saginaw Bay in July is nothing short of extraordinary. Walleye are biting right and left, and often the winds push the fish in certain areas of the bay, where they’re yours for the taking.
 
August
Both Perch and Walleye fishing is excellent in August. There’s a possibility of storms that could muddle the waters, and if that is the case, you’ll find big Walleye in the outer bay.
 
September
Walleye fishing is still going strong in Saginaw Bay. Chinook and Coho Salmon, as well as Steelhead, are biting as well, so you’ve got a variety of catch to choose from.
October

As the fall weather is getting more unpredictable, so are the fish movements, highly dependable on the rain and wind. Walleye, Salmon, Trout, and Perch could all find their way to your line.

November

It’s getting quite cold outside, so don’t forget to dress in layers before you hit the water. Perch and Walleye are the main catches, and you can get more than enough to bring home for a feast.

December

This is the last chance to go fishing before the ice sets in, so dress warmly and head out. Along with the strong Walleye bite, Trout and Perch are likely to take the bait.
