  • Fishing Report for Lake Erie and Detroit River - December 1st, 2024
    Dec 1 2024
    For December 1st, 2024, here’s your local fishing report for Lake Erie and the Detroit River:

    ### Weather and Tidal Conditions
    Today, expect partly cloudy skies with a high of around 45°F and a low of 35°F. Winds will be moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10 mph. Tides in the Detroit River are relatively stable, with a low tide at 9:30 AM and a high tide at 3:30 PM.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 7:30 AM, and sunset will be at 4:45 PM, giving you a good window for both morning and afternoon fishing.

    ### Fish Activity
    Fish activity has been moderate, especially for walleye, smallmouth bass, and perch. Yesterday, anglers reported catching some quality walleyes, particularly in the deeper waters of Lake Erie. Smallmouth bass are active in the rocky areas of the Detroit River, and perch are biting well in the shallower waters near the shoreline.

    ### Catch Reports
    Yesterday saw a decent catch of walleyes, with many anglers reporting fish in the 18-22 inch range. Smallmouth bass were also plentiful, with some catches reaching up to 4 pounds. Perch fishing was excellent, with many limits being filled.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For walleyes, use jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers. Deep diving crankbaits in shad or perch patterns are also effective. For smallmouth bass, soft plastics like curly tail grubs or small crankbaits work well. For perch, small jigs with maggots or small minnows are the way to go.

    ### Hot Spots
    One of the best spots for walleyes is the area around the Fermi Power Plant, where the structure and currents create a perfect environment for these fish. For smallmouth bass, the rocky shores and islands in the Detroit River are ideal. For perch, try the areas around the Metro Park Marina or the mouth of the Huron River.

    Overall, it should be a good day for fishing on Lake Erie and the Detroit River, so make sure to bundle up and take advantage of the moderate fish activity.
