Grew up on the Maumee River in Toledo. Waterfowl on fall and walleye in spring. Summertime was perch in Maumee bay. Day after a noreaster head to the manmade island for giant mudfish like suckers and huge carp. They feed on the dead baitfish from the storms.
Now I live in sw ohio and I have a farm pond with bass and bluegill. I have spent a lot of time on my pond and I have several very large fish including a sift feeder 3 foot long that scares children and dogs.

I got a chance to get on the water this past weekend and caught 6 catfish under 8 pounds, on chicken livers. If I could have gotten some fresh shad I feel like I could have probably got a 20-40 pound blue . I saw 6 being weighed in at the dock over 25 .

I used to use all beef hotdogs. It works great try it sometime.
Best bait though yes is cut bait
I use them, I’ve even done the cherry jello on hotdogs but it’s a sticky mess. And yeah hotdogs work pretty good. I think shad are probably the best bait around here but you just never know what they will eat. Ohh grasshoppers are awesome too.

If you inherited an old tackle box of gear from Grandpop, check out the price estimates on some of these.
