ฝัง

- This technique can really put some sauger on the bank for you on the Ohio River. It was a solid day of fishing considering it was December 3 and nearly 50 degrees out. The Hocking River was flooded so I decided to go down to the bigger river and chase some Sauger. Enjoy this short tutorial video and please down in the comments share techniques you like to use to chase these awesome fish!
Thank you for something other than bass fishing content! Don't get me wrong, I love bass fishing, but I also love to see other types of fishing!
I appreciate the feedback Kevin!! I typically fish for all kinds of species on my channel. This past season was consumed by bass tournaments. We have some amazing walleye, Sauger and saugeye fisheries here in Ohio! Thanks for watching man
Nice river outing on the Ohio. Sauger and walleye bite is on. Like the how-to and following the cast in all the way in. An old river guide buddy told us "You never know how far that fish followed the bait back. They might commit once the fish think a meal is getting away." Thanks for sharing B.
Exactly!!! I caught a couple just a few feet off shore! You can definitely pull baits away so I try my best to retrieve to the bank. Thanks for watching Brian!!
Loving the colder weather content💪🏼🔥 gives me somethin to watch when I’m not out😂❤
Appreciate you watching!! These fish have no problem eating in the cold so they will keep the itch scratched for sure
I love catching a sauger when out and about fishing. Good video and good info on how to fish for them.
Appreciate you watching Billi!! Are you ready for spring yet?! I am
Great rescue! That had to be freezing cold 🥶 👏🏾🤣🎣
Thanks man it was pretty darn cold
Takes me back to your old how to videos that taught me most of what I know about fishing. Props for diggin that sauger outta the rocks he likely never would have made it outta that hole unless the water come up. Another great video man.
I was looking at my videos and I havent did one in awhile so I figured why not! I love sharing information that helps folks catch fish. That sauger would have been in trouble because I went back a few days later and the water was down a couple feet..
Thank you for sharing, i have never caught one those fish. God bless you and your whole family....🙏❤🙏❤🙏😊🙂😀
They are fun to chase in the cooler months!! They definitely scratch the itch. God Bless John!
That’s a decent place to fish this time of year. There is a sweet spot there.
I kinda jumped around a bit. But that one spot was money! I might go back again here soon. Can’t beat high 40s in December. Thanks for watching!
@@thecreekcrawler your welcome
If that the spot I’m thinking of there is a place few miles up that you can find Muskie and decent fish.
Down my bad lol
@@mid-ohiofishon8903 Ive seen a musky in this spot actually!
Another great video! Thanks for the great information!! Glad I make my own vibes I’ll be sure to come prepared.
Thank you!! good luck if you get out there!
Tight lines👊🏼
Thanks man!! That sticker should get to you anytime!! I appreciate the support
Great video crawler fun getting thumped this time of year any way you can thanks for the post !!!
Thanks Jeff! I absolutely agree any bite this time of the year is my jam!
damn thats a fancy setup 👌
It really is. Im going to put it through its paces this season and see if it’s worth the price. So far the sensitivity is night and day and it’s very light.
@@thecreekcrawler can even tell by watching it looks sensitive lol
@@benonem I can feel the plankton breathing on my line..=]
Congratulations on your degree, Bryan! Perhaps you could make a short tutorial on how to successfully go noodling for saugeye in cold water? 🥶😆
Thanks Blaine!!! It’s actually illegal to noodle in Ohio I believe. I had to save this guy from getting ravaged by raccoons at night 😂
I hadn’t known that about noodling here…..Fortunately I have NO desire to go. I appreciate the breakdown of what you’re doing, too. It sure helps.
You will have me now spending more money at Vance's.

Appreciate it James!! Did y’all fish for trout yet?!
@@thecreekcrawler not yet we are going to clear creek soon can't wait
Great job
It’s been a grind on these cold days but I’ll take it!
Well done man!
Thanks man! How you been?
@@thecreekcrawler been good waiting for the baby girl to get here and trying to find a new house lol. Also going to the fishing expo on the 15th in Sharonville if your heading down this year.
@@waterratlyle2590 Im down to go man!!!
Will that method work for saugeye as well? I just bought a blade bait last week and plan on trying my luck this weekend. Thanks for the tutorial, always seem to learn something from your videos! Congratulations on your graduation also!
Yes absolutely!!! I do this at Buckeye lake and catch em. thanks for watching Steve.
Nice🎣🎣🎣
It’s been a decent bite lately! Unfortunately the rain has come already.
Diawa steez 😮 o ye !
It’s my prized possession 😂
@@thecreekcrawler I can understand, I do not own one for obvious reasons $$ ,, but I use a tatula reel that has been awesome.
@@allen4758 The tatula elite reels on a Kage rod have been one of my favorite combos this year too.
Wow that was fantastic. Congratulations on getting the third degree😉. I have a hard time telling the difference between sauger and saugeye. Got an easy tip on that?
Sauger have very distinct polka dots on their dorsal fins. Saugeye have more streak like patterns. Thanks for watching Steve
👍😎
thanks for watching Michael
Awesome day of fishing , what dam where u at
I bounced between willow island and Belleville
you are fishing about 5 miles from my property , never suager fished what are keeper size ?
I believe you can keep 6 with no minimum size limit. I would double check though.
We need that new video
If I can ever find some time to fish and catch some stuff 😂 winter has been rough on us in Ohio unless you get to fish a particular river
Willow Island L&D. Come on down to Meldahl, the best pool on the river.
never fished down that way I know a few buddies who do great down there!
Hey, great video! Haven't fished in the Ohio River for decades. Congratulations on your graduation. What type of degree did you earn?
This will be my third degree 😂 I have one in fisheries management, wildlife management and this one is Outdoor Education.
@@thecreekcrawler quick question......so what is the purpose of crossing Sauger and walleye?
@@dbrockway84 creating a consumptive fishery. Hybrid species make great consumptive fish because they grow fast due to hybrid vigor and the saugeye tend to do better in a lake system especially shallower lakes
be new to river fishing what size VibE you throwing in the river ? Thank you in advance
depending on the current I was using either a 1/4 oz or 3/8 oz..the deeper water I chose a heavier vibe so I could get to the bottom quicker and where I needed it.
Congratulations on finishing with your degree!!!
You were fishing the ohio side of the dam,right?
Thank you and yes!
Where is that On the Ohio please
I was fishing at multiple dams like willow island, Racine and Belleville
@@thecreekcrawler what dam is that in the video
The first one
@@davehall3475 Belleville
@@thecreekcrawler thank you
Are you on the Ohio or Ky side
Both actually! Thanks for watching
