Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

I like goby when dragging bottom with deep divers.  The RC 3.5 only dives 0-4 ft. so I would go with a perch pattern, bluegill/sunfish, baby bass (smallmouth), and/or a shad pattern.  I really don't think you can go wrong with any combination of green, orange, yellow, purple, white/silver, and a little red as an accent color.

One bait that has always been my "go to" on LSC is the Fat Free Shad in the "Copper Bream" color/pattern.  I don't think they make them in that color/pattern anymore.  If I get some time I will take a photo and post it here on the board.  Also the Bill Norman DLN in the Sun Perch color/pattern has been good to me also.  They both work on LSC and Erie.

Those Koppers Livetarget lures are nice.  But at $11.49 a piece......well that's better than Lucky Craft and way nicer as far as the looks are concerned.  Has anyone used these things yet???  I may have to try a couple.  Just add it to the other hundreds of dollars I am going to spend in the next few months on stuff I probably won't really need.

I've been looking for the Copper Bream pattern, even searched the discontinued colors...no luck.  I did find Coppernose Bluegill though.  Could that be the name BD?

If it was a Fat Free Shad then yes.  When they were first making them, they called it "Copper Bream".  They may have changed it to Coppernose Bluegill.  I do have some on my work bench that are still brand new in the package in the fingerling size.  I will have to check it out and get back to you on that.  I will also take a picture of it and post it when I get a chance.  I found a whole bunch of them at Dick's last year and bought all they had.  Haven't seen any of that pattern as of late.

I have tried the LiveTarget. They are pretty sweet looking. I bought the green craw one and fished it up in the UP on a camping trip and caught a few smallies. But I did see it put some good fish in the boat in the Spring time on Lake St. Clair. Haven't tried any of the other color patterns.

I have found over the few years of fish Lake St.Clair and the other great lakes that MI has to offer. Is that you just can't beat a color from the Strike King Sexy Family. Or one of there new craw colors Chart. Belly Craw, or the Orange Belly Craw.
