  • Smallmouth Bonanza and Walleye Delight: Fishing the Cleveland Lakefront on a Spring Day

    Smallmouth Bonanza and Walleye Delight: Fishing the Cleveland Lakefront on a Spring Day
    May 21 2025
    Artificial Lure here with your Lake Erie and Cleveland fishing report for Wednesday, May 21, 2025. Spring has been treating anglers to steady action, and today’s shaping up to be another solid day on the water.

    Sunrise was at 5:58 AM, with sunset coming at 8:47 PM. Weather-wise, expect mostly cloudy skies early, with the possibility of rain and some wind building up through the afternoon. Water remains in good shape for now, but if the rain picks up like forecasted, rivers could get a little stained, so it’s wise to hit your spots early.

    In terms of lake activity, smallmouth bass continue to steal the show along the Cleveland lakefront and in nearby rivers like the Rocky and Chagrin. The bite has been strong, both in the rivers and out into the bays and near-shore shallows. Anglers are landing excellent numbers of lake-run smallies, with a few steelhead still hanging around the river mouths—always a bonus for anyone looking for that “silver and bronze” combo in a single outing. Walleye fishing is good just off the shoreline in the evenings, and the day bite is picking up for those trolling deeper[1][2][4][5].

    Best lures for smallmouth right now are 3 inch olive tube jigs, Ned rigs, medium crankbaits that mimic shad or goby, and spinnerbaits. Don’t shy away from tossing streamer flies if you like to fly fish—anything resembling a minnow will get hit. For walleye, stick to jigging or casting with blade baits and swimbaits, or troll with deep-diving crankbaits as the bite gets stronger in the evening.

    If you’re targeting trout, the East Branch Rocky River and local ponds like Wallace and Shadow Lakes are stocked and producing well on PowerBait, trout worms, and small spinners[1][2].

    Recent reports have anglers catching mixed bags—smallmouths in the three to four pound range are common, with some pushing five pounds. Walleye have been solid, with several fish in the 18 to 24 inch class landed near the Cleveland breakwall and east towards Euclid. A few leftover steelhead are still striking in the faster river water, especially after a rain.

    For hotspots, try the mouth of the Rocky River and the breakwall off Edgewater Park for smallmouth. For walleye, the stretch between Gordon Park and Wildwood Marina has produced well during the evening bite. Don’t overlook the harbors and feeder creek mouths if the wind is up.

    That’s the scoop for today. Get your gear ready, check the latest weather, and hit the water early to beat the rain. Tight lines from Artificial Lure.

  • Springtime Smallies and Walleyes Thrive in Cleveland's Rivers and Shoreline

    Springtime Smallies and Walleyes Thrive in Cleveland's Rivers and Shoreline
    May 19 2025
    Hey there, fellow anglers! Artificial Lure here with your Lake Erie, Cleveland fishing report for this fine Monday morning, May 19, 2025.

    The fishing scene around Cleveland is absolutely popping right now! We've got excellent numbers of lake-run smallmouth bass in the Rocky and Chagrin rivers, with conditions looking pretty decent for today. There's been some rain in the forecast lately, so get out while the getting's good.

    Speaking of smallies, they've been hitting medium-sized minnow and shad crankbaits like nobody's business. If you're looking to hook into these bronzebacks, don't leave home without your spinners, tube jigs (that 3-inch olive color is money), and Ned rigs. Fly anglers, bring those streamer flies that mimic minnows or gobies.

    For you walleye chasers, the post-spawn bite after dark has been a bit slow, but persistent anglers are still connecting with some nice fish. Try casting those larger Perfect 10 or Husky Jerk shallow diving stickbaits for best results.

    The Cleveland shoreline is offering a mixed bag right now - largemouth bass, northern pike, rock bass, and even a few late-season steelhead if you're lucky. You might even score the coveted "silver and bronze" - landing both a steelhead and a big smallmouth on the same trip!

    Over in the bay, smallmouth continue to move in with good numbers being reported. Interestingly, folks are picking up some bonus largemouth while targeting those smallies. Fish are holding both shallow and deep, so you've got options on how to approach them.

    Hot spots? You can't go wrong with the Rocky River Main Branch or East Branch right now. Wallace Lake is another solid bet, but heads up - the north side of the swimming area was closed until yesterday for a children's fishing derby, so it should be open again now.

    All the courtesy docks are installed at Metroparks public boat launches, and the E72nd fish cleaning station is open and ready for your catch.

    Weather-wise, we've had a decent stretch, but keep an eye on those conditions. The wind might kick up a bit as we move through the day.

    That's the word from the water for today, folks! This is Artificial Lure saying tight lines and full creels to all you Cleveland anglers. Get out there while these spring conditions are holding, and remember - a bad day fishing still beats a good day at work!

  • Cleveland Fishing Report May 18, 2025: Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, and Mixed Bag Bites Highlight Spring Conditions

    Cleveland Fishing Report May 18, 2025: Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, and Mixed Bag Bites Highlight Spring Conditions
    May 18 2025
    Artificial Lure here with your Lake Erie, Cleveland fishing report for May 18, 2025. We’re kicking off the day with classic spring conditions: sunrise hit around 6:05 AM and sunset is expected at 8:39 PM. The weather is fair and mild to start, with light winds, but keep an eye out—the wind could pick up by mid-day, which may add some chop to open-water fishing, especially on Saturday and into tonight. No major tides to report this time of year for Lake Erie, but shifts in wind can act like a pseudo-tide impacting where fish stage along the breaks and shorelines.

    Smallmouth bass are still the main draw around Cleveland’s harbors, breakwalls, and in the shallows. Both largemouth and smallmouth are lighting up for anglers, with smallies being caught in good numbers using ned rigs and drop shots in the shallows, while swimbaits and jigs are working deeper out in the bay. If you’re targeting rock piles or structure near shore, don’t overlook the classic tube or a subtle soft jerkbait for a pressured bite.

    Walleye action after dark is still the best game going, especially for the post-spawn fish. Success has been reported trolling or casting larger stickbaits like Perfect 10s and Husky Jerks in shallow water. Fish are definitely scattered—persistent anglers are pulling a few quality fish each night, but don’t expect a crazy hot bite during daylight hours just yet[1][5].

    In the harbor and near the river mouths, a mixed bag is possible. Northern pike, rock bass, yellow perch, steelhead, and sunfish are in the mix, and most area courtesy docks in Metroparks and cleaning stations are open. For numbers, the smallmouth bass bite has been very steady, and walleye catches are spotty but consistent for the hard-working nighttime crews[1][5].

    Best baits right now:

    - Smallmouth: Ned rigs, drop shots with goby or shad imitations, soft jerkbaits, and tubes.
    - Walleye: Shallow-diving stickbaits in darker colors for night, glow patterns if the water muddies up.
    - Perch and panfish: Live minnows or a plain jig tipped with waxworm near the bottom.

    Hot spots to check out: East 72nd Street Marina breakwall is always a favorite for early morning smallmouth and nighttime walleye. Edgewater Park and the breakwalls near the mouth of the Rocky River are also producing well for mixed species. Don’t be afraid to move and try different depths as fish are still transitioning post-spawn.

    If you’re heading out, remember the Cleveland Metroparks fish cleaning station at E72nd is open—let’s keep it clean for everyone. Good luck and tight lines from your local source, Artificial Lure[1][5][4]!
