Fishin from the shore

wahoogrl1 · May 10, 2010, 01:09:04 PM

I dont have a boat, but I love to fish. Can anyone direct me to a great spot to fish from shore in the Columbus area. I hear Griggs Reservoir has some great spots, but I can't find them. HELP!

Alot of stretches of the Scioto River can be bank fished or waded through, and theres a bunch of great fishing in there. At Griggs, there are roads ( not sure the names of them) that run along parts of both sides, and there are openings along them to fish.

Any idea if I wanna concentrate on the southern half of griggs or the northern half?

I would stay either between the bridges or below the Fishinger road bridge. Although i can truthfully say that at Griggs, the fish hold all over the place!

Hi ya guardrail good to see you again. You been catching any fish yet.

Wahoo- Guard is definitely right about fishing in the river...if you can get in there, and even wade fish, you will catch smallies and there are some big ones up there too.

Guard- The Powells are sweet! Haven't had any problems with them yet knock on wood!
