maumee river:
very low water conditions. The catfish bite has been steady but not on fire. Doing best on the catfish in the deeper water, downtown Toledo,, and above the providence dam.
Smallmouth bass bite has been fair at best. Search out the pools below Rapids where the smallmouth are laying up waiting for some bait to be turned up and tossed their way. Crawfish plastics and small crank baits are working best.
