  • Summary

  • As of November 14, 2024, the fishing scene on Lake Erie near Cleveland is quite active despite the chilly conditions. Here’s what you need to know for a successful day on the water.

    ### Weather and Tidal Conditions
    The weather today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of around 48°F and a low of 38°F. Winds are moderate, coming from the northwest at about 10-15 mph. Tides, although not as critical for Lake Erie as they are for coastal areas, still play a role in fish movement; however, Lake Erie's water levels are more influenced by wind and atmospheric pressure. Today, the water levels are relatively stable.

    ### Sunrise and Sunset
    Sunrise is at 7:04 AM, and sunset will be at 4:54 PM, giving you a good window to catch both morning and evening bites.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw a decent number of walleye and yellow perch caught in the Cleveland waters of Lake Erie. Walleye are biting well, particularly in the deeper waters around 40-50 feet. Yellow perch are also active, often found in shallower areas around 20-30 feet.

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish Caught
    Anglers reported catching several limits of walleye, with some fish weighing up to 5 pounds. Yellow perch were plentiful as well, with many anglers filling their coolers with these tasty fish.

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For walleye, the best lures include deep-diving crankbaits and jigging spoons. Tipping your jig with a minnow or worm can also increase your chances. For yellow perch, small jigs tipped with maggots or minnows are highly effective.

    ### Hot Spots
    Two hot spots to consider today are the areas around the Cleveland Harbor and the Rocky River mouth. The Cleveland Harbor has been producing good numbers of walleye and yellow perch, especially near the breakwalls and piers. The Rocky River mouth is another prime location, particularly for those targeting steelhead trout as well as walleye and perch.

    In summary, with the right gear and knowledge of the hot spots, today promises to be a great day for fishing on Lake Erie near Cleveland. Make sure to bundle up and enjoy the fall fishing experience.
