Smallies in some of the deeper pools and riffles off of the Metroparks access areas (Sidecut, Buttonwood, Ft. Meigs). Haven't seen many crappies yet.

Avoid the Sidecut/Maumee side just go across to the Perrysburg side. Maumee/Sidecut is full of Moss/Algae muck from shore to 10-15' out.

I live in maumee/perrysburg area. Most of the river is covered by moss and it's very low.. I went up to grand rapids today and fished from 11:00am to 3:30pm. Caught 10ish white bass, 4 smallies, 1 small LM, 5 12-16 inches walleyes and a bunch sheephead. All fish were caught with silver Rapala Shad rap. Best day this summer so far.

Go across the Maumee/Perrysburg bridge or I475 and get off at route 25 and go to route 65 to Buttonwood Rec. Area . Your best bet though might be heading further south to Waterville or Grand Rapids like Jin said.

Maybe it's just the heat, but several unwarranted comments have been removed. Play nice.
