A really good spot to fish the banks at Otter is where the canal runs into the small pit. The water running though that small shallow 10ft wide by 150 to 200ft long ditch or canal flushed critters out into the small lake on the West side of that canal. Fish like to hang out there waiting for morsels to drift their way.

I talked to a young man fishing that spot a few months ago and he had a 5lb bass, a 2lb bass and one short bass which he released after I told him about the 14" size limits on Otter Pit. He would not want Gorden Woods to catch him with that short bass on the stringer. The young man was catching some nice big fish there with a bobber and a minnow on a hook. This pattern works best when there is a lot of water flowing though the canal. So if we get a good rain that fills up the Three Big pits the water will run downstream from Blue Grass Pit under Boonville New Harmony Rd, then through Loon Pit and under Kansas Rd and into Otter Pit. From there it goes though the canal to the SW part of Otter Pit and then under Euler Rd and then west though the farm field towards Blue Grass Creek. From there it flows south to Pigeon Creek and then down Pigeon Creek to the Ohio River. At times of flooding Pigeon Creek and Bluegrass Creek will flood that same farm land and enter Otter Pit first. There are 36" culverts under Kansas rd and Boonville New Harmony rd that connects all there of the main pits on Bluegrass Fish and Wildlife area.
