    Ohio River Fishing?

    Anyone fish the Ohio River around the Huntington WV area? I have bank fished it many times and have never done much good other than at the Robert C Byrd dam below Gallipolis. I have never been out on it, and may start taking the boat out on it since I live so close, I can see the river from my house.

    I fish the Gallipolis pool alot. I live 15 min from river access. Sometimes it can be really good, sometimes I wonder if there is any fish I it. You're talking to a guy that's won a few tournaments on the river too. The best advice I can give u is just fish it and stay patient. It's a huge body of water and changes regularly..

    I am below the Gallipolis pool between the Greenup and Gallipolis dams, the Guandotte and Big Sandy rivers flow into the Ohio in that area, never fished much on either of those rivers either.
