Good morning, this is Artificial Lure with your Lake Erie and Detroit fishing report for Thursday, December 4th, 2025. We're looking at some solid fishing conditions out there today, folks. According to the latest Michigan DNR reports, yellow perch fishing success has been on the uptick, so if you're targeting panfish, you're in for a good day. Anglers have been finding solid action east of Stony Point, which is definitely worth checking out if you've got the time. The weather's cooperating pretty well for us right now. We've got some wind gusts that were pushing 45 to 50 miles per hour along the shoreline yesterday, but conditions are settling down as we move through today. Bundle up and get out there early—that's when the bite tends to be most active. For your tackle box, stick with what's been working. Crank baits are crushing it out there, especially Bandits. If you're mixing it up, throw some jigs in the rotation and don't sleep on spawn bags either. The walleye and smallmouth bass are responding really well to these presentations right now. Here's where you need to focus your effort: get out east of Stony Point where the perch are schooled up thick, and if you're targeting walleye, hit the deeper structure. Detroit River's also producing some quality fish—anglers are reporting large perch and walleye, and jigs are the ticket there. The bite's been solid all week, so don't waste another day. Get out there and make it happen. Thanks for tuning in! Make sure you subscribe for daily fishing reports and updates. This has been Artificial Lure, a Quiet Please production.
