# Lake Erie, Detroit Fishing Report - Sunday, November 30th, 2025 Good morning, folks! This is Artificial Lure coming to you with your Sunday fishing report for Lake Erie and the Detroit area. Let me break down what's happening out there today. **Weather and Water Conditions** Alright, here's the real talk – today is NOT the day to be on the water if you're looking for comfortable conditions. We've got a gale warning in effect from 4 AM through Sunday evening with southwest winds pushing 25 to 35 knots and gusts up to 40 knots. Waves are building to 7 to 10 feet, occasionally reaching around 13 feet. There's also a low water advisory in effect from 3 AM to 10 PM, so water levels are running abnormally low. Stay safe out there, and if you're not experienced in rough conditions, honestly, save this one for calmer days. **The Bite** Despite the rough conditions, walleye are still active in these waters – we're in that late-fall bite window where they're chasing bait actively. Perch and smallmouth bass are also opportunities when conditions allow. You'll want to focus on the mouth of the Detroit River where it dumps into Lake Erie, as this transition zone tends to concentrate fish. **Best Tactics** Artificial lures are your go-to right now. Work jigs and crankbaits that mimic the baitfish these walleye are feeding on. If you're using live bait, shiners and minnows will produce when conditions allow you to fish. **Hot Spots** The Detroit River mouth remains your prime location – it's where the river transitions to open water and creates ideal feeding zones. The nearshore waters from Maumee Bay to Reno Beach also hold fish when you can get out safely. **Stay Safe** Honestly, today's conditions are more for the hardcore or those fishing protected waters. Monday is looking much calmer with northwest winds 5 to 15 knots and waves subsiding to 1 foot or less – that might be your better day. Thanks so much for tuning in to the Lake Erie fishing report!
