Lake Erie Walleye and Perch Fishing Charter Trips Luna Pier, Monroe Michigan & Ohio

Lake Erie Perch Fishing Report, Monroe Michigan 11-09-2012

Lake Erie near Monroe, Michigan
11-10-2012
We starting fishing again after "Sandy" there have been lots of spots on the Michigan side of Lake Erie around the dumping grounds and the Raisin River where the water is gin clear. Gin clear water holds no food, no bait, and no perch or walleye.
We have been fishing over on the Ohio side near the Toledo water intake anywhere from 22 to 16 feet of water. You just have to search around a bit to find them.  Wed. Nov. 7th we had north east wind that muddied up the dumping ground area and the perch moved in and we caught and average of 10 inchers. Our best day in weeks size wise. The Michigan side in front of Toledo Beach Marina, and the Homrich mansion in 9 to 14 feet has been OK the past couple of days. The fish we caught are big and impressive but we couldn't limit out. We would catch 10 to 15 then they would quit and we would have to move a couple of hundred yards and do the same thing.
Get out if you can! We have caught some very impressive size perch. You don't have to travel far. The surface temp. of the water has been around 54 degrees and the big ones have moved into 12 to 18 feet of water. The junk fish have been non-existent.


Remember your in Ohio and the limit is 30 per person. A word of caution the ODNR will stop and count your fish - fines start at $20.00 per perch over!!!

 
Ohio's perch limit is 30 per angler this season
Michigan perch limit remains at 50 per angler
