The biggest lakes in terms of geographical area covered and size too are the Great Lakes. This lakes are home to a variety of fish and other aqua life. They are housed by Michigan State and the Ontario part of Southern Canada. This lake in its totality has a huge impact on the Canadians and the Michigan State citizens especially those involved in the fishery industry and obviously the customers. This is the reason that one has to assess the Michigan fishing report.

The best analysis can be done by analyzing the various areas that this activity is done. On the other side Michigan benefits from the harsh winter temperatures that results to winter-kill. This is where fish die due to harsh winter weather. This kill can be seen in shallow ponds, streams and on top of lakes. The thick ice characterized during winter is the main cause of this death.

However, cannot be used as a tool to peg it down to the population of fish and their subsequent worth. The ice kill is common in the southern part of the lake and the peninsula. Down the Detroit River one can easily spot the ice kill. This is more of a hunt than the traditional methods where one goes down with his net. In addition, the winter kill is as a result of ice can be easily be attributed to timely arrival of winter.

The upper part of Michigan can be analyzed geographically and the consequential catch that comes with it. The northern part is partly inaccessible during winter and this hampers the whole activity. The economy with relation to this activity also suffers in a major way.

The majorly affected areas are Platte Bay, Onekama, Frankfort, Portage Lake, and Lake Cadillac. However, for the latter, according to various anglers, it is accessible for the moment but an increase in the temperatures could render the whole lake inaccessible. This consequently, has an effect the whole process as some anglers have been recorded to using body baits, spawn, minute spoons and wax worms. The turn out by the anglers is quite high but the catch is small.

Little Bay, Munising, Cedarville and Hassel, and Keweenaw Bay all at northerly fall culprit to the melting of ice in the summer. This affects the methods they use as there is no more winter-kill at this time. Anglers have to go further in the lakes with boats and use different methods like wax worms to fish with.

Bluegills, rainbow, perch, whitefish, gills, crappies, pan fish, and turbot are some of the. The perch is the most common type. This is because of its size and the ease it comes with catching it. Especially during the winter.

Anglers and generally anyone who would want to fish can get a license from as low as thirty US dollars. This has contributed heavily on the increase in the whole activity.
