Maumee River

Well the past weeks rain in this whole part of the country has the river level up an moving pretty good. We are still seeing some nice catfish being caught all up and down the river. The small mouth bite has also been pretty good . Last week when the water came up like it has today  I had some good small mouth reports from white street access and along the Towpath.

We have been seeing some good panfish being caught at Wiregrass lake and out to the White house Quarry.

And for those of you that have asked and are looking for some Pike- either up north or  near the dam in Grand Rapids we brought in some ” Creek Chub Pikies”

Trolling:
Northwest Reef has produced some keep-able fish but the shorts are everywhere from what reports we are getting. Crawlers harnesses, Jets and spoons, Taildancers, and Rattle Tots have all been leading the way.

We are fulling stocked with all colors of Bombers-Smithwicks and Bandits.

Drifting:
Reports still coming from off Crane Creek, the Intake, around K and L Cans, Locust, Flat Rock, Cone and Crib low light hours. Crawler harnesses and bottom bouncers or casting weight forwards still seem to be working best

We are stocked up with Crawler harness-we can custom make just about any color that you want – 1, 2 or 3 hooks.

Perch:
Reports have been very good lately.
Good catches reported from A Can, B Can and out East of the Intake, over around D and G Cans have been good .
