Saginaw bays best walleye fishing starts now,on through the closing of walleye in the rivers on march 15,till ice out.Best fishing in my opinion is to stay near or between Saginaw and kawkawlin rivers they stage here EVERY year and in about 2 weeks Limits will be caught in chocolate milk looking water in 2-3' yes thats 2-3 foot of water.Ice here has been unstable saginaw river is still mostly open water, beware of the winds people go for rides on the ice here every year.Living here my opinion is the west side of the bay is better fishing. out of linwood area early in the year and gather up by the rivers as it warms up , east side of the bay is reef spawning gators the big pigs run the rivers on the west side. ill be fishing the weekend about a mile east of bay city state park ill post results.
