Thread: Saugeyes

I used to fish for them a LOT. Not so much anymore. To busy chasin crappie, smallies and musky. I will say this though, fall is the absolute best time to catch a PIG saugeye.

I have wanted to try for them also ,i have the poles but its hard to try something different when your catching crappie .
Do you fish dropoffs like in the spring ?and do you tip the vibe with anything?
I do love to verticle jig

Fishing on the Ohio river I've caught lots of Sauger but never a Saugeye that I know of. But I'll keep trying.

There are some saugeye in the Ohio river. I don't know if they're traveling down river from the lakes or a natural mix in the river,

I mostly fish the roadbed on Piedmont. I never tip the Vibe, I think it messes with the action and causes more fouling of hooks.
