Im heading to the U. P. of Michigan next week. Pulling my 17ft boat up there. We are gonna be staying around Manistique. Does any body know what the water temp is on inland lakes and the Bays de nocs. Never been up there. But planning to catch smallmouth, pike, and musky. I appreciate any pointers.
 
Can't help you with the temps, but I drove through that area about a week and a half ago. The mosquitoes were the worst I have ever seen. They looked like clouds of smoke. Beautiful country though.
 
North and South Manistique Lake
Can be really good also, call or stop at Micks Bait Shop in Curtis
They usually have a good pulse of what’s going on locally.
 
Little Bay De Noc: Try for Pike and Smallmouth around the weed beds near Butlers Island, which is just out from the boat launch in Kipling (Gladstone)......well, this year the island is actually under water! May also pick up a few just out from the Gladstone beach house/swim area or along the west shore line between the Terrace Bay Hotel and Gladstone.
