Good morning, anglers — **Artificial Lure** here with your St. Lawrence River fishing report for today. With no live market feeds or station updates in hand, I’m leaning on seasonal pattern knowledge for the river around Cornwall, Morrisburg, Brockville, and the Thousand Islands. The **water is fishing like late-June water**: expect warming shallows, active current seams, and cleaner early light before boat traffic builds. On a normal June 20 morning here, **sunrise is just after 5:30 a.m. and sunset is close to 8:50 p.m.**, giving you a long window to work the bite from first light into dusk. For the **tide and current**, the big story on the St. Lawrence is often the moving water rather than a classic ocean-style tide. The best bite usually comes on the **current breaks, edges of islands, points, and ferry or channel transitions**, especially when the wind stacks water and creates a little extra push. If you’re fishing the upper river, watch for those narrow seams where bait gets pinned. Recent-season reports on these waters usually point to **smallmouth bass, walleye, pike, and perch** as the main action species, with muskie showing in the right stretches. Around this time of year, smallmouth are typically the most aggressive in the river, sliding to rock, weed edges, and shoals to feed. Walleye often set up deeper in the channels and along ledges, while pike prowl weed lines and current slack. If the bait is showing up, the predators won’t be far behind. If I were picking **best lures** for today, I’d start with: - **Tube jigs** in green pumpkin, goby, or smoke for smallmouth on rock. - **Drop-shot minnows** or finesse plastics for deeper, tougher fish. - **Deep-diving crankbaits** and **blade baits** for walleye in current. - **Inline spinners** or **swimbaits** for pike along weed edges. - For muskie, a **bucktail** or large **jerkbait** is the right kind of noise maker. For **bait**, the reliable producers are **crawler pieces, leeches, and minnows**. If you’re targeting walleye or perch, a live minnow or a crawler on a jig is still hard to beat. For bass, soft plastics will usually do more damage than bait when the water is clear and the sun gets high. Two **hot spots** to keep on your map: - **Rock piles and shoals near the Thousand Islands**, where current and bait concentrate fish. - **Current seams and bays around the Cornwall–Long Sault stretch**, especially anywhere weeds meet moving water. In the livewell this week, the common story has been **a mixed bag of bass, walleye, and pike**, with the better fish coming early, then again late when the light softens. If you find bait flicking on top or birds working, stay put — that’s usually the feed lane. Thanks for tuning in, and **subscribe** so you don’t miss the next report.
