Fishing tip: Temperature changes
With fluctuating winter temperatures in Michigan, focus on fishing during low-light periods, early morning and late afternoon, when species like walleye and perch are most active. If you are marking fish but not getting bites, downsize your presentation and switch to lighter line, smaller tungsten jigs, or subtle jigging motions. In cold water, fish are often less aggressive, so a slower, more finesse-style approach can make a big difference.
