Two Lures You MUST HAVE When Saugeye Fishing at Buckeye Lake! (Intense Bite Window)
Спорт
I make an effort to visit Buckeye Lake a few times a year to chase some toothy critters. The timing is perfect right now as water temps are around 40 degrees and the shad are schooling near the banks. This makes for a recipe when targeting saugeye from the bank at this fairly large lake. This bite came out of nowhere and we ended up with a dozen fish in less than an hour. A couple lures I like to throw at this particular body of water include swimbaits, blade baits, and jerk baits. I caught up with a fellow angler and his father as we hit a really good bite for around 30 minutes during sunset. Enjoy this short video and make sure to get after those saugeye in the winter!

Thanks man!! If that lake wasn’t an hour and 15 minutes away I would be fishing it a lot more. It’s hard to find time for that adventure right now. I’m just glad to have a successful trip documented.
It is the exact same way down here at Piedmont lake - about 30 minutes before sundown and 30 minutes after they bite like crazy and then it shuts off for a couple of hours, then it will turn back on again. Happy new year.

@@thecreekcrawler Amen my brother and fellow Angler. Jesus Christ picked fishermen/Anglers to be His disciples and that to me even logically means something powerful. Jesus Christ/The Word incarnate in flesh said to them to come follow Him and be fishers of men. God Bless you and yours my brother and fellow Angler. P.S. More then anything people should understand that my heart is in the mental health and addiction field. Also me working at a dual Diagnosis inpatient and residential Mental Health Hospital for 10years has kept me very humble. Because tomorrow isn't promised for any of us. What's to say any of us will wake up and have a sound mind tomorrow and be able to approach this life. So for me having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Saviour is number one and truly Loving and forgiving others, as I would for myself. Also doing my very best to mirror the image of Jesus Christ and not religion. God Bless Sincerely "The Dayton Metro Smallmouth Slayer"🙏🙏🙏💙🙏🙏🙏👊🙌👋💯💪🤺🔥🎣🐟.
