あらすじ・解説
For Friday, December 13, 2024, if you're planning to head out to Lake Erie in the Cleveland area, here's what you can expect:
First, let's look at the tidal conditions. Today, the first high tide is at 6:02 AM with a height of 1.74 meters (5.71 feet), followed by a low tide at 12:37 PM at 0.25 meters (0.82 feet), and the second high tide at 6:05 PM at 1.15 meters (3.77 feet)[2].
The weather is expected to be chilly, typical for this time of year, with sunrise at 4:45 AM and sunset at 6:37 PM. Given the recent rain, the local rivers are elevated and muddy, but they should be fishable into the weekend[1].
Fish activity has been quite active in the area. Anglers are currently targeting walleye, steelhead, and yellow perch along the Cleveland shoreline of Lake Erie. The walleye bite has been particularly hot, with many anglers reporting successful catches. Steelhead are also being caught in the Rocky and Chagrin rivers, although the rivers' conditions are a bit challenging due to the mud and impending cold[1].
For walleye, try fishing in 26-38 feet of water at the Port of Cleveland, which is renowned for its excellent walleye fishing. Bandit Lures in blue-and-chrome and trolling after dark have been effective. For steelhead, drifting techniques with egg sacs, trout beads, pink worms, and jigs are recommended. Fly fishing with egg flies, beads, stoneflies, or buggers is also productive[1][3].
If you're after rainbow trout, which were recently stocked in local lakes like Shadow Lake, use maggot, waxworms, corn, salmon eggs, or PowerBait dough[1].
Hot spots include the Port of Cleveland for walleye and the Rocky and Chagrin rivers for steelhead. The East Branch Rocky River and lakes like Shadow, Hinckley, and Wallace are also good spots for stocked trout[1].
Remember to check the local fishing regulations to ensure you're within the daily catch limits and using the right gear. Good luck out there
