The water level has dropped since last week’s rains and the fish have spread out along the river’s historical spawning grounds. In recent days, anglers have done well in the Fort Meigs and Orleans Park areas, and at the Jerome Road rapids. The strong winds complicate matters, but the warmer temperatures have many anglers staying in the river for longer stretches. The pros at Netcraft report that the afternoon and evening bite have been the best in recent days, with anglers using No. 2 floating jig heads, three- or four-inch swirl tail grubs, and ½- to one-ounce weights. The brighter colors have been productive, with orange and pink leading the pack. The water temperature pushed to about 45 degrees on Thursday, which should indicate a very active weekend for fishermen.
