when to start fishing in indiana

[jworth]

well i hit the retention pond yesterday afternoon and saw quite a few bass roaming but no takers. saw a few of the channels checking me out too but i wasnt rigged for them. lost my tackle box last year off a boat so im going to have to go get some new lures and such soon. usually plastic worms are HOT there. Maybe going down to sweetwater this weekend.

I'm going to take the boat out for the first time this year tomorrow. All of the lights were replaced with LED tonight, and I added some LED docking lights.

Can't wait!!

I'll have to match the water. It's always murky here....never clear. I usually use watermelon plastics (Slug gos) since the water has a unique tint. If I go 2 hours north the water is crystal clear because of the zebra mussels.

If I catch anything I'll get pix. If I don't, I'll still get pix lol

Maumee OH we usually stay around Bluegrass island but theirs plenty of places all over my dad and his buddy went up came back with four and said they snagged a bunch but that they were shoulder to shoulder with other guys fishing it gets packed up their during the weekends ill be going up this Friday and probably this sat with the rain the water will be up a little but should bring in more walleye.

the best walleye bait is a jig head tipped with one of these minnow, night crawler, leech, or a soft plastic curl tail grub.
