As of November 9, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Erie near Cleveland is quite promising despite the chilly conditions. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.
**Weather and Tidal Conditions:**
The weather is expected to be cool, with temperatures ranging from the mid-40s to low 50s. Winds will be moderate, coming from the northwest. Tidal conditions are not a significant factor on Lake Erie, but the water levels are currently stable.
**Sunrise and Sunset:**
Sunrise today is at around 6:54 AM, and sunset will be at approximately 4:53 PM, giving you a good window to catch both morning and evening bites.
**Fish Activity:**
Anglers are actively targeting walleye and yellow perch in the Cleveland waters of Lake Erie. Yesterday saw a decent number of walleye caught, particularly in the deeper waters near the lake’s central basin. Steelhead trout are also active in the area streams and along the lakefront, although the local rivers are currently muddy due to recent rain.
**Types and Amounts of Fish Caught:**
Walleye and yellow perch are the main catches right now. Anglers reported catching several walleye in the 2-4 pound range, and yellow perch are being caught in good numbers, especially near the marina and harbor areas. Steelhead trout are also biting well in the Rocky and Chagrin rivers.
**Best Lures and Bait:**
For walleye, using jigs tipped with minnows or nightcrawlers has been effective. Crankbaits and spinner rigs are also producing good results. For yellow perch, small jigs with maggots or crickets are working well. Steelhead trout are biting on spawn sacks and small jigs with maggots.
**Hot Spots:**
One of the hot spots right now is the area around the Cleveland shoreline, particularly near the marinas and harbors. The Rocky River and Chagrin River are also good spots for steelhead trout. For walleye and yellow perch, try the deeper waters off the central basin of Lake Erie.
Overall, it's a great time to get out on Lake Erie and catch some of these active species. Just make sure to bundle up for the cooler weather.
