# Lake Erie Detroit Fishing Report - Monday, November 24th

Hey folks, this is Artificial Lure bringing you your Monday morning Lake Erie report. We're looking at a pretty active week ahead out here on the water.

**Weather and Conditions**

We've got southwest winds running 5 to 10 knots this morning, building throughout the day. Waves are minimal right now—just 1 foot or less—but they'll pick up as we move into the week. Tuesday's gonna bring rain with 10 to 15 knot southerlies, and things get serious Wednesday when we see those winds kick to 30 knots with waves building to 5 to 8 feet. If you're heading out, get it done early in the week before that system rolls through.

**Fish Activity**

We're in that late November lull, but bass are still feeding actively before the full winter slowdown. You'll want to focus on deeper structure and channel edges. The local forums are showing decent activity on inland waters and around the river systems feeding into Erie.

**Best Tactics**

Flipping's your bread and butter right now—focus on those dense vegetation mats and woody cover you can find near deeper water transitions. Bring some 3/8 to 1/2 ounce jigs in black or brown, and don't sleep on your crankbaits for suspended fish. Live shiners work great if you can keep them in these cooler temps, but soft plastics like 4-inch worms on a drop shot will get you consistent bites.

**Hot Spots**

Target the Detroit River channels—especially around the deeper bends where current breaks. The Maumee Bay area's also producing, particularly around that weed line transition from shallow flats to the deeper main lake basin.

**ARTIFICIAL LURE'S LAKE ERIE FISHING REPORT**
November 21st, 2025

Hey folks, it's your boy Artificial Lure coming to you live with today's Lake Erie and Detroit River fishing report.

First things first—we're looking at a First Quarter Moon today, which means decent fishing potential. Sunrise is happening early this morning, and we've got solid daylight until sunset. FishingReminder's got your major bite windows locked in at 6:43 to 8:43 AM and again at 6:57 to 8:57 PM, with a minor window from 2:08 to 4:08 PM. That means right now, folks, you're sitting pretty in that first major bite window.

Here's the reality on Lake Erie near Detroit—this is walleye country, and it's been absolutely firing lately. We've got some absolutely world-class walleye action happening in the Detroit River and western Lake Erie. Smallmouth bass are also in the mix, and you can pick up some multi-species action if you're willing to throw different presentations.

For your lures, you want to be thinking walleye-specific—crankbaits are your bread and butter this time of year, especially in chartreuse and natural patterns. Jigs tipped with live bait are also crushing it. Speaking of bait, live shiners and crawlers are going to be your best bet to put fish in the boat.

Now, let me hit you with some hot spots. Saint Aubin Marina is just 1.8 kilometers out—solid structure and easy access. If you want to get a little further out, hit up Conners Creek at 8.4 kilometers. Both spots have been consistent producers, and the structure attracts everything from walleye to smallmouth.

The Detroit River itself is pumping right now. This is some of the best walleye water in North America, and conditions are favorable today with that First Quarter Moon pushing some activity.

Thanks for tuning in to the report, and don't forget to subscribe for daily intel on where the fish are biting. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quietplease dot ai.

Good morning, folks. It’s Artificial Lure here, and I’m bringing you the latest from the waters of Lake Erie and the Detroit River as we kick off November 20th. The sun came up this morning at 7:42 AM and will set at 5:05 PM, giving us a solid nine hours of daylight to work with. The weather’s been mild, with high pressure holding steady over the Great Lakes region. Winds are light out of the northeast, mostly under 10 knots, and waves are staying under 2 feet, so conditions are calm and safe for boats. No small craft advisories are in effect, and the forecast calls for a cold front moving in Friday, but for now, it’s smooth sailing.

Tides are minimal here, but the Detroit River’s flow is steady, and the water’s clear with temps hovering in the upper 40s. Fish are active, especially walleye and smallmouth bass. The latest reports from Waterford Bait Shop and local guides say walleye are biting well in the Detroit River, particularly near Fighting Island and the mouth of the Huron River. Anglers are catching them on jigs tipped with minnows and soft plastics, with some fish pushing 20 inches. Smallmouth bass are also on fire, with several guides reporting limits of 4- to 6.5-pounders caught on Marabou jigs and crankbaits. The action’s been so hot, some guys filming for YouTube channels are losing count early in the day.

Lake Erie’s steelhead run is just starting, with the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission collecting eggs at Avonia Beach. That means the fish are moving into tributaries, and if you’re targeting steelhead, try the lower stretches of Trout Run and Sixteen Mile Creek with egg patterns and spawn sacks. For walleye and bass, stick with jigs, crankbaits, and soft plastics in natural colors. Live bait like minnows and nightcrawlers is always a solid choice, especially for walleye.

If you’re looking for hot spots, Fighting Island and the Huron River mouth are your best bets for walleye, while the Detroit River’s deeper holes and rocky points are prime for smallmouth. For steelhead, hit the tributaries early in the morning or late in the evening.

Artificial Lure here with your Lake Erie, Detroit fishing report for Wednesday, November 19, 2025.

Weather’s starting off mild and calm, with high pressure dominating the region. According to the National Weather Service Cleveland, expect light winds all day, northeast 5–10 knots tapering off to near calm toward afternoon and waves holding at one foot or less. Overcast skies are rolling in, so grab that rain gear if you’re headed out late. Sunrise hit the water at about 7:23 AM, and sunset is at 5:10 PM. Tidal action today is a non-factor for Erie, but the bite’s aligning with the solunar major feed windows around 6:43-8:43 AM and again from 6:57-8:57 PM, as FishingReminder points out. The first quarter moon overhead is always good news for night walleye chasers.

Walleye are the stars right now. "Lake Erie, Detroit Fishing Report Today" called it a veritable bonanza the past two days with locals boating reliable limits, especially off the Detroit River shipping channel and near the Saint Aubin Marina. Most reports are solid for 14-18 inchers, with a few topping 22. Follow the contour breaks and look for bait clouds—the big girls are cruising edges.

Yellow perch catches were spotty but improving east of Belle Isle and near Erma Henderson Marina by midday. Perch are schooling deeper, favoring 18–22 feet. Smallmouth bass are less active but a good bet midday; try Memorial Park Marina’s breakwalls for numbers, with fish up to 4 pounds. You might run into a stray steelhead cruising the river mouths, especially if you’re tossing spoons early.

Top baits are no surprise: bright blade baits (gold or chartreuse) and 3-4 inch swimbaits in shad or perch colors have been winning for walleye. If you’re trolling, stick with deep-diving crankbaits like Reef Runners. Perch are responding best to emerald shiners on drop-shot rigs, but if you’re running artificial, try small Gulp! minnows—sweeten the deal with a little scent, as Captain Mike Schoonveld recommends. For smallmouth, drop-shot finesse plastics in green pumpkin or black are the local standby; tube jigs around rocky transitions are also drawing strikes.

Here’s today’s **hot spots**:
- **Saint Aubin Marina**: Best for morning walleye and lots of shore access.
- **Erma Henderson Marina**: Producing mixed bags of perch and smallmouth, especially for boaters with electronics.
- **Shipping channel near Belle Isle**: Deep trolling near structure for larger walleye after sunrise.

Boat traffic’s light—most die-hards are finding fish suspended, so don’t be afraid to try mid-water columns if bottom’s quiet. Early birds have the best odds.

That’s it for today’s Lake Erie, Detroit fishing report. Thanks for listening, and make sure to subscribe for your daily update. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.

Good morning, folks. It’s Artificial Lure here, and I’ve got the latest from the docks on Lake Erie and the Detroit River for Tuesday, November 18th. The weather’s been a bit of a rollercoaster lately, but today’s shaping up to be a solid day for those willing to brave the chill. Winds are light, mostly out of the northeast at 5 to 10 knots, and waves are staying under a foot near shore, making for calm conditions. The water temperature is holding steady around 45 degrees off Toledo, a little warmer near Cleveland at 50, and 47 off Erie. Sunrise is at 7:48 AM, and sunset will be at 5:02 PM, so you’ve got a good window to get out there.

The fish are active, especially walleye. The Detroit River’s been seeing a real bonanza lately, with anglers pulling in hefty catches. Most boats are averaging 3 to 4 keeper walleye, and some are even hitting their limits around the dumping grounds southeast of Grosse Ile and the head of the river. Perch and smallmouth bass are also showing up, but the walleye are definitely the stars right now. The bite’s been strongest in the early morning and late afternoon, so plan your trip accordingly.

For lures, stick with local favorites—jigging spoons and crawler harnesses are working well, especially in the deeper holes and along the drop-offs. If you’re trolling, try a crawler harness with a crawler or a minnow for bait. For walleye, a 3/8-ounce jig with a minnow or a soft plastic is a solid choice. Perch are responding to small jigs tipped with wax worms or spikes, and smallmouth bass are hitting tube jigs and crankbaits.

Hot spots to check out include the dumping grounds southeast of Grosse Ile, the head of the Detroit River, and the nearshore areas around Maumee Bay. These spots have been producing consistently, and the calm weather makes them accessible even for smaller boats.

This is Artificial Lure with your Lake Erie, Detroit-area fishing report for Monday, November 17, 2025.

Bundle up if you’re heading out—last night’s northwest winds really stirred things up, clocking 15 to 25 knots, with waves peaking at 6 to 11 feet right through this morning. Water temps are sitting cold: 45 degrees off Toledo, 51 off Cleveland. The wind is forecast to ease up as we move into the afternoon. We’re not seeing much in the way of rain right now, but the weather is unsettled, so bring your foul-weather gear just in case. Sunrise came at 7:21 a.m., and you’ve got daylight until 5:07 p.m.—that’s your fishing window.

Local anglers out braving the chop this past weekend reported good numbers of late-fall **walleye**—as is classic for November—with most fish holding in the deeper channels and off the river mouths as the water’s cooling. Word from the DNR’s weekly creel survey shows catches averaging 3 to 4 keeper walleye per boat, with some anglers boating limits around the dumping grounds southeast of Grosse Ile and the head of the Detroit River. These fish are hugging the bottom, so running deep-diving crankbaits like Reef Runners and Husky Jerks in purple or fire tiger—especially at night or during overcast periods—has been producing well.

**Yellow perch** action is slowing but still fair if you can find a school—try anchoring up on the edge of the shipping channel near the mouth of the Detroit River, especially close to Sugar Island or off Pointe Mouillee. Minnows on perch rigs or spreaders are best. Average perch size has been 8 to 11 inches, with some pockets of 12-inchers.

**Smallmouth bass** reports have tapered as the water chills, but die-hards are connecting with a few big bronzebacks around Belle Isle and the Ambassador Bridge using blade baits like the Silver Buddy—work them slow and close to the rocks. For **steelhead**, shore anglers at Metropark and the Trenton Power Plant have hit a handful of fish on spawn sacs and bright Beadhead nymphs fished under floats, especially after any hint of rain or snow.

Given the rough conditions offshore, best bets today are sheltered launch points:
- **Elizabeth Park Marina:** good for getting at the mouth of the Detroit River, which is hotter when winds are up.
- **Wyandotte Municipal Ramp:** quick access to the deeper holes upstream near fighting island—classic fall walleye territory.

With water clarity stained from all the wind, flashy lures and rattlebaits are outproducing—especially gold, chartreuse, and hot orange patterns. If doing live bait, go with big emerald shiners for both walleye and perch.

Tides aren’t a major factor on Lake Erie, but boaters should respect the surge from westerly blows today—use caution on open water, especially in smaller rigs.

Artificial Lure here with your November 16, 2025, Lake Erie Detroit fishing report. Early this Sunday morning, anglers hit the launch with cold hands and big dreams. Winds out of the west at 12–18 knots kept things lively on open water, and according to US Harbors, expect scattered clouds with temps hovering just above freezing through midday. Sunrise checked in at 7:20 AM, setting up a crisp but colorful start, with sunset due at 5:09 PM over the glassy lower Detroit River.

Lake Erie doesn’t have true oceanic tides, but water levels can still fluctuate modestly from winds and barometric pressure. Right now, conditions are steady, with no significant surge or seiche events reported—plan on normal access at ramps and predictable current on the Detroit River, especially crucial for vertical jigging walleye.

This week’s fish activity has been strong and steady, especially as water temperatures slide toward the low 40s. Just yesterday, The Toledo Blade reported some true giants showing up for the Fall Brawl—11-pound walleyes leading the pack and plenty of seven- to nine-pounders in coolers near Luna Pier and Bolles Harbor. Local charter captains are also noting big schools of perch stacking up outside Brest Bay and minnows working wonders. Smallmouth bass remain active, particularly around rocky structure and shipping channel edges, with tournament anglers weighing in multiple bags over 20 pounds in last week’s Detroit River event per Major League Fishing.

Let’s talk what’s working:
- **Best lures for walleye**: ¾-ounce hair jigs tipped with emerald shiners, or for those favoring plastics, the tried and true 4" paddle tails in chartreuse or green pumpkin. Vertical presentations just off the mouth of the river and the classic jig-and-crawler combo at bottom transitions are both producing.
- **Bass baits**: The top finisher in the MLF Detroit River event leaned heavy on a drop-shot with a Berkley MaxScent Flat Worm and 6” minnow imitators on a 3/16-ounce jighead. The bigger profile draws up the bruisers, especially when the wind zips across open flats.
- **Perch**: Old-school techniques still win—rig a double-hook perch rig with lake shiners or small bits of nightcrawler, and let it rest near weed edges or around pier heads on the Michigan side.

Now, for hot spots if you’re heading out:
- **The Trenton Channel**: Reliable for both walleye and smallmouth, especially from mid-morning as the sun warms things a touch. Bounce jigs along the edges—big fish are hugging the bottom.
- **The dumping grounds off Stony Point**: Lately a sleeper spot for eater walleyes and bonus jumbo perch in 18–22 feet, with scattered rocky patches holding fish.
- **Wyandotte to Fighting Island**: A solid late-fall bet—current seams are stacking up bait and with it, quality smallies and aggressive ‘eyes.

Today’s report: Most boats are seeing mixed bags of “eater” walleyes, 16–21", and a few trophies topping eight pounds. Perch catches are running 8–11", but you’ll work for a limit. Smallmouth action: plenty of twos, some threes, and an occasional five-pound kicker. The bite is best from late morning through early afternoon as the wind settles.

Bundle up, keep a weather eye, and don’t be shy about downsizing if you get short strikes. For more Lake Erie Detroit action, tune in daily, and remember to subscribe for the latest local tactics.

Good morning—this is Artificial Lure with your Lake Erie and Detroit fishing report for Saturday, November 15th, 2025, coming to you straight from the banks and marinas where the bite is always a local legend.

First light broke this morning at 7:18 AM and you’re looking at sundown at 5:15 PM, giving you a solid window to hit the water. The sky is mostly cloudy today with a light south breeze at 5-10 knots, building to about 10-15 knots in the afternoon, then swinging southwest. Water temps near Detroit are sitting tight around 45 degrees off Toledo and 51 off Cleveland, so it’s cold, but not out of play for our hardy local fish. According to the National Weather Service, the lake is calm this morning with waves less than a foot, but watch for things to kick up to 2-4 feet this afternoon as that wind shifts. Sunday looks windier, so now’s your best bet for comfort and safety.

There’s no true tidal swing on Lake Erie, but wind does push water around and you’ll want to watch for that edge effect, especially in river current zones and near creek mouths after breezy nights.

As for the fishing—it’s late autumn, with water cooling but not locked in just yet, and fish are definitely on the move. Recent chatter on the Great Lakes Bass Fishing Forum and reports from local shops say smallmouth are still moving in schools from the deeper summer structure to shallower haunts, following baitfish wherever they bunch up. Anglers in the Detroit River, particularly between Belle Isle and the mouth, are pulling in smallies in the 2-4 pound range with some real bruisers caught close to 5 pounds. Walleye action is consistent near the River Mouth and out into Brest Bay, with a few limits reported over the last week.

For lures, this is the time for classic late-fall selections. Drop-shot rigs tipped with soft plastics like a smoky gray shad or a green pumpkin worm are getting loads of bites, especially when worked along the bottom contour in 18-25 feet. Blade baits—think silver or gold—have been slammin’ the smallmouth and even some bonus walleye in these chilly temps. Crankbaits with a slow wobble, in natural or chrome patterns, are also pulling their weight. Remember, cold-water fish like a slower presentation, so don’t be afraid to drag or hop those jigs gently.

Live bait, if you can get it, is always welcome—minnows and large shiners fished on a simple jighead in current breaks will draw interest from both bass and walleye. Nightcrawlers still have a place, worked slowly through any weedline or drop-off you can find.

Walleye catch counts are ticking up as we move deeper into November, with several groups reporting quick limits near the river’s mouth using vertical jigging tactics and live bait. White bass, perch, and the ever-present silver bass are showing sporadically in the Detroit River near the shipping channel and the islands.

Hot spots to hit today:
- **The mouth of the Detroit River** near Lake Erie Metropark—current breaks, especially where baitfish are stacked up, are loaded with both bass and walleye.
- **Wyandotte Horseshoe and Grassy Island area**—great for vertical jigging and a fall favorite for locals in-the-know.
- If you’re looking to stay sheltered, duck into the Trenton Channel and target those deep holes near the Edison plant outflow—warmer water there can mean more active fish.

Big news for the region: Lake Erie’s fishery is getting new investment, with Ontario’s facilities stepping up efforts and ongoing habitat restoration projects—good stuff for the long-term health of the system, keeping our fisheries strong for years to come.

That’s the word on the water today. Thanks for tuning in—don’t forget to subscribe for tomorrow’s action and instant tips from the dock to the drop-off.

Fishing on Lake Erie near Detroit is off to a blustery start this Friday, November 14th, 2025. Sunrise came in crisp at 7:20 a.m., with sunset rolling in tonight around 5:10 p.m. If you’re heading out, make sure you layer up—temps started near 40°F this morning, working up to a chilly mid-40s by afternoon, and it’ll feel every bit that cold with a steady west wind cutting across open water. The National Weather Service has issued a Small Craft Advisory: winds are running west at 15 to 25 knots and waves are 3 to 6 feet most of today, occasionally peaking higher. Water temperature is hovering around 48°F at the Detroit shore. If you’re planning to run out of the river mouth or get near the islands, check your safety gear and be prepared for a bumpy ride according to the NWS marine forecast.

Fish activity is shifting as autumn sets in. Walleyes are firing up with the drop in temperature—seasoned locals have found excellent action targeting pre-winter schools pushing in closer from the deeper flats. Many are trolling deep-diving crankbaits like the classic Bandit 200s or Reef Runners behind planar boards—purples and chrome patterns are hot right now. Jig fishermen are also scoring, using ¾-ounce hair jigs tipped with emerald shiners, especially around the mouth of the Detroit River and across large grass flats, a strategy that recently helped Michael Neal take top honors off these precise spots in pro competition. On the Detroit River itself, vertical jigging with blade baits or plastics has put plenty of eater-size walleyes in the net.

Yellow perch reports have been spotty: a few schools stacked up off Stony Point and west of the Point Mouillee cut, but you’ll need to cover water. When you find them, drop-shotting with live minnows—local bait shops still have some in stock—produces best, though some diehards swear by perch-colored Rapala Jigging Raps fished slowly above the bottom.

Smallmouth bass activity remains steady for those focusing on rocky points and reefs near the islands and around the mouth of the Detroit River. According to Major League Fishing reports, the big bronzebacks are still taking tube baits (green pumpkin is always reliable), Ned rigs, and 3.5-inch swimbaits retrieved just fast enough to tick the rocks. Try pike and spinnerbaits for bonus northern pike—several anglers reported decent catches along weed edges south of Grosse Ile.

Two hot spots to check before the weekend:
- The massive grass flats northwest of the Duck Islands near the mouth of the Detroit River—recent pro tournaments and local guides have reported consistent quality walleyes for those willing to battle the chop.
- The Stoneport Reef complex off Pointe Mouillee—hard bottom and nearby drops concentrate both perch and late season smallmouths this time of fall.

Detroit River water clarity is decent, with some stain from recent winds—ideal for crankbait action. Some local shops are even selling “Pumpkin Spice Fish Bait” as a tongue-in-cheek tactic, but you’re better off with tried-and-true shiners, larger fatheads, or even drop-shotting Gulp! Alive minnows for the finicky bite.

No tidal activity to report for Lake Erie—she's a wind-driven inland sea. Winds will lay down some by Friday night and into the weekend, so keep an eye on updated marine forecasts if you're running a smaller craft.

Artificial Lure checking in with your Lake Erie/Detroit fishing report for Thursday, November 13, 2025. It’s late fall in the Motor City, and the morning started crisp and blustery. Sunrise hit at 7:15 AM, with sunset coming around 5:13 PM—so plan those trips for max daylight, especially with the colder temps and early dusk.

Weather’s a big factor today. National Weather Service reports strong west winds—15 to 25 knots—putting a chop on the lake. Nearshore, you’re looking at waves 2 to 5 feet, and further out it’s rough, 7 to 10 feet, with a Small Craft Advisory still active through Thursday. Water temps are chilly: 46°F off Toledo, 52°F off Cleveland, and 50°F off Erie. The cold front moving through will slow fish metabolism, so target midday warm-ups for action.

Fish activity has dropped off a bit with the conditions, but Lake Erie and Detroit River are still kicking up solid fall numbers. Walleye are staging for their winter runs—local bait shops report steady catches, especially by drift anglers in 14-20 feet of water. Best baits lately: jigging Rapalas, blade baits, and the classic chartreuse twister tail. Fishing Addiction Gear notes that stinger hooks are essential for walleye—those short-striking fish need the backup steel, especially now when bites are subtle.

Yellow perch are hanging tight near the weed beds and drop-offs. The bite’s not hot, but patient anglers are getting 8–12 per trip using emerald shiners on spreaders and crappie rigs. Try working slow—they’re sluggish after the cold snap.

Smallmouth bass are still cruising rocky shorelines and deeper ledges, especially near the mouth of the Detroit River. GreatLakesBass.com locals report that tubes (green pumpkin or smoke colors) and drop-shot rigs rigged with minnow-style plastics are turning bass right up until freeze-up. If it’s sunny, fish the south-facing banks where water warms quickest.

Your Lake Erie hotspots today:
- **Mouth of the Detroit River:** Massive grass flats—recent tournaments saw heavy bags from here, especially bass and walleye after windy fronts.
- **Milliken State Park shoreline:** Sheltered from wind, consistent perch and occasional bass.
- **Fermi Power Plant outflow:** Water’s a tad warmer—mixed catches possible, especially when other areas lock up.

Stormwater runoff is an issue in Detroit right now, with leaves and organic debris washing into the lake, creating low-oxygen “fish kill” risk. Keep an eye out for floating mats and avoid fishing in heavily debris-choked stretches after rain, per advice from local park interpreters.

No tidal swings here, but watch for fluctuations in water levels after heavy winds. Low water advisories were around this morning but have lifted. Always check before launching—some ramps may be tricky with the wind driving water levels down.

Sum up your tackle box for this week:
- Blade baits (silver, gold)
- Jigging Rapalas
- Chartreuse twister tails
- Emerald shiners
- Tubes & drop-shot plastics
- Stinger hooks for walleye

Numbers-wise: Most boats reported mixed bags—walleye counts from 5 to 15, perch up to a dozen, and a few bonus smallmouth. Nothing huge, but enough action to make braving the elements worth it.

That wraps it for today’s Lake Erie/Detroit fishing report. Thanks for tuning in—be sure to subscribe so you never miss an update. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
