Maumee river sunday fishing report- june 12 2022

Catfish , bluegill and crappie are biting .

The last week the bluegill have been on their beds . Panfish strongly favor sand or gravel bottom substrate for bedding so they can fan out a bed. A bed is simply a depression on the bottom for females to deposit eggs that is guarded by the big male panfish  you will be targeting. A bluegill  bed can consist of a dozen or more of these beds in close proximity. These males are aggressive and will attack and bite lures/bait dropped  near the bed.

Crappie Too!

Have fun be safe and good luck fishing
