Ohio Outdoor News Fishing Report – April 15, 2021
The crappie bite has been good all across the state.

The crappie bite has been good all across the state.

Steelhead fishing on Ohio’s northern tributaries continues to be the best thing going this spring.

I really like to feel the bite, but I respect all the techniques for catching walleyes. The truth is, I just love filling my cooler with walleyes.

Being able to set the hook just a second or two sooner can increase your hook-up rate.

The spring steelhead bite in northeast Ohio rivers is the thing fishermen are talking about these days.

Bass fishing is good at Adams Lake, and 2-, 3-, and 4-pound bass are not uncommon, a testament to the 15-inch keeper limit.

Steelhead fishing in the northeast Ohio Lake Erie tributaries of the Rocky and Chagrin rivers and Conneaut Creek is gangbusters right now.

Walleyes in early stages of river spawn runs. On inland waters, crappies are the name of the game.

Bluegills and pumpkinseeds are also excellent target species here.
