Long Point Bay Advice

[Lunker777]

Hey everyone

 

Buddy of mine and myself were thinking about maybe heading to long point bay to do some fishing in the next little while.

 

Any advice on what we can expect when we get there ?? Or maybe where to head and what would be the best technique ?

 

we're fishing for bass... large or small ! haha

 

Thanks

Well, I see you're from Chatham....

My advice would be not to go to Longpoint Bay lol

I would drive the 30 minutes and go to Lake St. Clair

but... if you're going to go to LPB, I would try around Bait Island, maybe on the longpoint side where the big sandbar drops off, I've always had good luck there.

Livebait works good(minnows) but I've also had good success with tubes and gulp minnows.

If you're looking for largies, then I would try the in the weeds... there are too many spots to mention in the bay. Flippin and Pitchin has worked well for me...

Good luck out there!

You can expect 1lb bass, and some pike. lol

 

Anywhere that looks like good largemouth habitat holds largemouth.

 

For smallies the north channel, Bluff's Bar and the shoals off Nanticoke, Dover and Ryerse hold fish.
