Lake Erie, Ohio - Freshwater Fishing Report
Bass Islands
It is September and prime time for Lake Erie smallmouth bass. Erie Quest Charters targets smallmouth bass in the Bass Islands area, as well as in the remote Canadian waters of Lake Erie near Pelee Island for Smallmouth Bass. These areas abound with rock piles and rock shoals, that offer unparalleled levels of quality Bass fishing. 3 to 4 pound Jumpers are common. Trophies of 5 to 7 pounds delight even the most experienced angler.
If, you are looking for the Ultimate Smallmouth Adventure and enjoy relaxing in Canadian hospitality, hen explore Erie Quest Charters 2 day - Pelee Trip. Spend an action-packed day catching Smallmouth, then check into one of Pelee Island's premier Bed&Breakfast's, and enjoy the island atmosphere. In the morning, we have a home cooked breakfast and then cast off to battle the Jumpers.
