Walleye
The Ohio River near Marietta, Ohio, offers a decent Walleye fishery, particularly during the spring and fall migrations. These fish move up and down the river in search of spawning grounds and food. Focus your efforts around structure like submerged rocks, ledges, and current breaks. Trolling crankbaits or jigging with minnows are popular and effective techniques. The area below the Willow Island Lock and Dam is a known hotspot, but be cautious of the strong currents. Access to the river is available at several public boat ramps. Walleye fishing can be challenging, but the reward of landing a good-sized fish is well worth the effort. Keep an eye on water levels and clarity, as these factors can significantly impact walleye activity. Early morning and late evening hours often produce the best results.
