Lake Trout
Although Lake Trout are not native to the West Point, Ohio section of the Ohio River, they could theoretically be found if they strayed far from their natural habitat. If pursuing this unlikely scenario, target deeper holes in the river during the colder months. Lake Trout prefer cold, oxygenated water, so look for areas with current or near underwater structure. Jigs tipped with live bait or large spoons are effective lures. A practical tip is to use a fish finder to locate potential holding areas and gauge water temperature at different depths. Remember, Lake Trout are typically found in larger bodies of water with significant depth, so success here would be rare. Always check and adhere to Ohio fishing regulations.
