Has anyone been catching any saugeye at buckeye does anyone eat them from buckey are they any good i went out duringthe low water level and it smelled like sewer and was wondering if they taste bad.

Welcome to the forum hope you have a great season Im in licking county,originaly north east ohio.im right off of broad east of pataskala.leave msg if your interested in goin out.

Have you tried ashtabula breakwall they stack up there before the river

We used to get walleye as soon as the ice was off in berlin res.until may using sonar blades red and white wth/touch of yellow. Hav to bump them on bottom and lift back up slow or fast? Could be any speed from a slow wobble to rippin it 3-4'.seemed like you didnt let them thump on bottom they wer only good for a couple limited out most days bumping it hard.

Im also looking for trout musky walleye river in southcentral,southeast ohioim 20miles east of columbus

Arr they stll get t ing steelhesd off the breakwall and are they getting wLleye off the breakwall at night yet. I fidh mistly walnut beach atea

If your fidhing for walleye there is a bar that runs from 224 bridge opposit from t he damit runs off of the wesr cornerabout 100 ft from bridge and runs for a couple of hundred yards.this is a great area to very slowly troll or drift crawlers on the bottom.also if your coming from main lake you go under r.r.bridge about halfway to 14 bridge it narrows on the right that corner where it nartows that corner on the right is a gpod area tp drift an troll especially right on the corner

Yes but here there put in to take out and get people interested in fishing and the out doors.they put them in small public ponds where they dont survive after the w a ter warms up.so the more that are caught the better plus its needed protein for some people that use fish to supplement their groceries.

Thanks to everybody for the replies im going out to buckeye tonite and tryin the shore for saugeyes anybody got any info on shore fishing at buckeyelake as in where can i and cant i fish ive never tried it from shore only with boat.

Nerk ,howdy im slojoe from pataskala ohio right down the road from you i have had great luck fishing the breakwall at walnut beach by ashtabula.We fish right on the breakwall from sept.till dec.or jan.or until you cant stand the cold ive caught them as late as march.We usually wear waders and a good heavy waterproof coatas the water will splashon you and every half hr.or so you have to break the ice off yourself.ive fished in blizzards and limited out in less than an hr.and thats thebonly problem driving 3hrs or more to only be allowed 2 fish.the only up side is if you stay there and fish at night you can pick up some nice walleyes and your allowed six of them spend the night and the next mornin get up and get 2 more stealhead good luck let me kno how you do.

Im in central ohio and recently retired i love to fish and now i have time to do it i fish from shore and have a 12ft.boat and small motor i also use .i fish primarilyfor walleye saugeye and crappies.i eat what i catch so thats why i target these species but i will go catfishing at night.im int r rested in buckeye lake tips and alum creek and hoover i havnt had a lot of luck at the last 2.ill welcome sll tips on where and what are biting.i do go to lake erie in the fall and f ish the breakwalls for steelhead.thanks for any help its appreciated i have a 10 year old grandson that likes to go with me when their biting.
