Big smallmouth bass at Lake St. Clair are getting even trickier to catch, and the top anglers at the 2025 Bassmaster Elite Series proved it.

If you’re heading out, are you sticking with the tried-and-true, or testing these new finesse tricks? Let’s hear what’s working for you on St. Clair! #News #BassFishing #LakeStClair
