looking for some good fishing locations (off shore) in the Windsor Essex County area. Open to catching anything, any help would be appreciated!
 
Go to the mouth of the Thames River on Lake St. Clair! I believe the little town is called Lighthouse cove (please look at a map to verify cause it's been a few years!) This time of year the walleye and muskie will be in, plus any other fish you can think of. Also never overlook any part of the Detroit River, if you can cast a line, you've always got a shot at something!!
 
Some of my favorite spots are;
Pilette docks( off of pilette road )- great for just about anything, especially perch.
BEST pickeral/walleye whatever you prefer location is right next to sand point(east riverside) go to the west about a block over and theres a rock fill where theres piles of rocks. Of the shore there is about a 100 foot drop directly off land for when the boats come in with rocks and sand and such. You can only fish there in the morning and late night and weekends or you sometime might get told to leave. Take just about any jig any size any color off land and ill guarentee you leave with 50lbs of pickeral.

Lilly Kazillies? Not sure the exact spelling its about 1km west of sand point beach or east riverside. - Great for anything.
Anywhere near Caesers Windsor, theres 5 km of walkway on the river with tons of sweet spots to fish at, I live nearby so I always go down to the rocks and fish off there with livebait,(catching your own minnows is stupid easy) or lures and jigs( my fav )
If your looking for pickeral/walleye pilette docks around 11a.m-6a.m is best. Also a must is the fountain a little to the east from the parking at pilette docks, deffinatly try it out
Also at the end of mill street on windsors west end is a great spot seperate by a huge opening that comes in thats always filled with lillies big bass , pike, lots of predators. Hope you find a good spot and good luck!

Go to the mouth of the Thames River the little town is called Lighthouse cove, there is a bar there too, you can go to the bar when there's not much action and go back fishing later.
