    Ohio River 10-19

    Went fishing last Friday on the Big O below Meldahl Dam. Got there before daylight. Right at daylight, the shad started poppin and I was on them. I caught 20 sauger in ten minutes, almost every cast. My brother caught at least 10 with a few white bass mixed in. As soon as the sun came up it was over. Jigged some spoons for a while and we caught about 20 more sauger. We kept 15 sauger and 10 whitebass, no stripers. Also caught a drum around 3lbs and a gar. Caught 2 smallies, one went 16". Fish were caught on hard jerkbaits, shallow diving cb and hopkins spoons. Had a blast! No topwater bite. Water temps 70-72, water clear to 2'.

    Ohio River 11/20/07. Fished below Meldahl dam last nite. Got on the water at 4:15pm and fished till dark. Started out jigging silver buddies in 22-35' of water by the locks only caught 3 sauger, 1 keeper around 14". Started hitting the banks with a jerkbait and a med diver cb. Caught about 30 sauger, 3 more keepers. Caught 2 smallmouth dinks, 2 largemouth dinks and 8 whitebass, 4 were aroung 15". Lots of current and the water had some color to it. Lots of boats out fishing. One boat said they caught all of their sauger on jigs and minnows, around 40, but only 5 keepers. Another boat, said they had their limit on sauger. They had 4 gates open at the dam and it was hard to hold your boat in the current with a trolling motor.
