New to fishing this year, first boat. Would like to know where to fish for Muskie and walleye's. I have my boat at sun-up marina (near sun-up marina)people discuss fishing "the point" or "south shore" but being new to Lac St Clair these are not easy places to find. I was wondering if anyone can post a map, so I can find these fishing areas easier.

Is there any maps, that have locations marked (weed beds, hott action for muskie, walleye always bite at this location) not just map of lake or water depths.
please give me some help finding some locations.

 

[Woods Before Water]

Not sure about any of those type of maps. Me personally I just drive till I mark fish with my fishfinder then I drift along. I'm sure you will get some responses to help these are great people on here. And will help as much as possible.

You are looking for the Hot Spots fishing maps. Available at most bait and tackle shops around the lake.

Or online here:

several maps available

You can click "fishing" on Marinecruiser and it will throw up a bunch of spots and typical species and general times of year to find them at that spot.

I use both. I study Marine Cruiser for new spots I think might be productive, then pencil them in on the paper map to take with me. If the spot proves to be good, if jot down some notes, date, water temps, weather etc in a notebook, and leave the markings on the map. If the spot is a dud after a few tries I lightly erase the marks I've made.

I think I'm going to try that too. Print off a section of the map zoomed in and start marking spots. I've never done that before, mostly because I remember the productive spots, but I'm sure I've forgotten about a few big Smallies and where I picked them up. Good thinking'.

I use highlighters on my hotspots maps...Obviously my spots are logged into my GPS units, but I highlight areas on my hotspots maps that I would like to try to expand on....I use different colors for different times of the year..You multi-species anglers could use different colors for different species of fish....

 

[Large Mouth Peks]

Great idea's Moto! I was going to use SM, MSK, etc....might as well just make a color coded legend at the bottom to save writting on the map itself.

Here is a great map for casting for muskies and it has GPS coordinates and seasonal info. I have one and it is very helpful and has reduced my learning curve of the lake.

Another I idea is to charter Musky Bob Brunner. I hear he is the best if you want to learn lake st. clair and the musky hot spots. He is a good guy also. I have met him and he'll tell you some good stories.

We've got a laminated rollup or a fold up map for about $10, ask for Doug or Jerry and we'll point out some fishing spots. Right across from Selfridge DNR boat ramp.
