Largemouth Bass
Central Ohio, including the Marengo area, offers decent largemouth bass fishing in smaller lakes, ponds, and reservoirs. While you won't find trophy-sized bass consistently, the opportunity for a fun day on the water is definitely there. Spring and early summer, during the spawn and post-spawn periods, are the most productive times. Focus on shallow water cover such as weed beds, docks, and fallen timber. Plastic worms, spinnerbaits, and crankbaits are all effective lures. As summer progresses, bass will move deeper, so try fishing drop-offs and submerged structure with Carolina rigs or jigs. Alum Creek Lake, a short drive from Marengo, is a popular choice. Public access is readily available at the state park. Bass in this region tend to be pressured, so using finesse techniques and varying your presentation can make a big difference. Also, be mindful of any posted regulations regarding size and creel limits, as they can change.
