: Alum Creek Lake (Delaware County) - Saugeye is an early favorite. Fish minnow-imitating crankbaits along the dam and causeways at night. During the day, use fluorescent colored jigs, tipped with large minnows, fished vertically on shallow flats and extended points adjacent to deep water. After a water release, fish the spillway with jigs for saugeye. For crappie, try the same deep jigging technique off deep points that have old stumps and in the northern basin of the lake. Temperatures at the lake range are ranging from 44 to 46 degrees Fahrenheit. Delaware Lake (Delaware County) This 1,017 acre lake north of Columbus in known for large crappie. Fish the old river channel and deep water with woody cover using a jig tipped with a minnow. As water warms this spring, crappie will move to shallower water to spawn. Channel catfish can be caught using cut bait; target the north end of the lake. Fish the spillway using jigs after a water release to catch saugeye and crappie. Reported by: |
