    Ohio River 4/25

    Thinking of hitting the river around Tanner's tomorrow. Anyone have any idea what it looks like? Living up in Columbus now and I never have a good idea of conditions.

    Thanks!

    If your going to tanners they should be spawning. They are on my pool of Chilo. Stay shallow and flip ever piece of wood you see. The creeks in the tanners pool are where most fish live year round.

    Ended up catching them pretty good, over a dozen. I didn't find any spawners water temp was 53-57 in the creeks I was in. It was pretty cold starting out. Main river was really clean with great visibility and most creeks looked pretty good too.

    Sounds like a good day!
    The river is always pretty good in the spring. Then she gets very stingy!
