Walleye and Smallmouth Crushing It on Detroit River and Lake Erie Tributaries - Quiet Please Fishing Report
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.
