I love fishing but I want to get better at it and catch more fish consistently. Any tips for from shore for really any species would be appreciated
Fish the Tusc now for Pike,spinners,jerk baits and jigs with curly tales.Cast near trees in deeper slow moving holesI live in Massillon Perry. It’s a little township. I fish the tusc a little in the spring when the fishing is hot. I also fish a little private pond for bass. I can travel just about anywhere because o have my license and I actually just bought waders lol

Be safe.Water is very cold nowSee if you can acquire a pair of waders or ask as a gift if you may not be able to afford. I went from a cheap pair of hip boots at around 13 to a cheap pair of chest waders when I was 16 but both proved very valuable in accessing shorelines that otherwise were limited to a few small clearings. Id also recommend sticking to a few multi species lures. I would mostly throw twister tails and medium running cranks, caught everything on them and wasn't a huge deal if lost to a snag or tree branch.
Lots of good memories driving to lakes after school or work as a teenager and wading around catching a bit of everything. Liked wading a lot as it not only gave more access but would teach me the shoreline/depth and bottom type to get experience.
I was actually there the last 2 days Ago. I was using a fire tiger twister tail and a link twister tail on the bottom. Didn’t catch anything but lost a decent saugeye and had a nice crappie but got off when I went to bank flip it lol.Try tossing twister tails on lead heads below charles mill for saugeye! Learn to read the flows,should be plenty of them in there! Good luck...
Any tips on colors and place to go on it? ThanksTusc might be a little high right now
I’ve actually just got a pair for Christmas. In a month or so in gonna go wading with my buddy for suageye at some dams he goes toSee if you can acquire a pair of waders or ask as a gift if you may not be able to afford.

Good luck but be careful out there young man, currents can be tricky and the bottom is always ever changing ... what was a nice level surface last year, or even a couple months ago, can be considerably different a few months later ... wish I had $25 for every time I took a bath because ankle deep turned into a 4 foot holeI’ve actually just got a pair for Christmas.

Yea I will.. him and his brother go every spring so I trust that they know what there doing lolGood luck but be careful out there young man, currents can be tricky and the bottom is always ever changing ... what was a nice level surface last year, or even a couple months ago, can be considerably different a few months later ... wish I had $25 for every time I took a bath because ankle deep turned into a 4 foot holelol I'd only have a couple hundred bucks, but always enlightening when it happens and you're suddenly neck deep, especially when the water is 35 degrees

Nice man keep at it! Dont hesitate fishing it after dark to. Look for slack water an try suspending jerkbaits... if theres one crappier in ther theres prolly more. Again look for slack water an try some micro jigs under a float. Might get q mess of crappies down there....I was actually there the last 2 days Ago.
