Big jack leader for the Week – 5.73 lbs

 

With the high water most anglers concentrated on white street and Orleans park. – The river is chock full of walleye but this high water makes it some what difficult to get that lure in front of them.   we saw some limits today  and plenty of singles and doubles come out of both areas.  The water is dropping and the weather is going to be beautiful today, should be much more productive all along the river. For you out of towners we have  waterproof maps available  that have all the access areas and boat launches marked.

Today White street and Orleans should be good. Also try Ford street and ft Meigs. Crossing to Bluegrass is out till closer to the weekend and Button wood is still a bit high as well.
