I went to the falls of the Ohio for a couple hours yesterday and couldn't buy a bite. Any advice for fishing it this time of year? What water level? Should I be fishing by the ramp on Harrison or by the interpretive center? As I was coming up the hill, a guy told me he couldn't stop catching them earlier in the week. It seems like I either catch so many my arms are gonna fall off or can't get a bite. Unfortunately, the can't get a bites way out number the arms falling off.
I just kind of keep moving around until I find the fish. Some days they'll be stacked in one little cranny, and then gone the next. You just have to keep moving until you find the right spot. I usually start right up next to the railroad bridge, and then work my way down towards the interpretive center...if nothing there I pack up and go down to the boat ramp and see what's happening there.
Water is dropping and river fishes dont likes dropping water :(
If it ever stabalizes or when water starts to rise again, the bite should be on. :)
