For November 24, 2024, here’s a local’s perspective on the fishing scene at Lake Erie and the Detroit River:
Today, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48 degrees and a low of 38 degrees. Sunrise was at 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at 4:58 PM. The winds are light, coming from the northwest at about 5 mph, which should make for a relatively calm day on the water.
Tidal conditions in the Detroit River are minimal since it is not a tidal waterbody, but water levels can fluctuate slightly due to wind and other factors.
Fish activity has been moderate, especially for walleye, smallmouth bass, and perch. Yesterday, anglers reported catching some quality walleye, particularly in the shallower areas of Lake Erie. A recent trip out of Mazurik's launch saw a three-man limit of walleye, with the largest fish measuring 25 and 24 inches, and several others between 21-23 inches. These fish were caught trolling crankbaits in 15 to 20 feet of water[1].
For the best results, use crankbaits such as Bandits and Smithwick shallow divers. High lines in shallow water have been the most effective, especially with lures set back 50 to 80 feet[1].
Hot spots include the areas north of Kelly's Island on Lake Erie and the Detroit River itself. The river has been producing smallmouth bass and perch, with some lucky anglers even catching walleye[2][4].
Overall, it's a great time to get out on the water before the winter sets in, and with the right lures and knowledge of the hot spots, you should be able to catch some quality fish.
