Snipe…I mean Saugeye reports?

I’m sure that I would be equally successful fishing any public pool, but I’m going to give Cowan, CC, or Acton a try this weekend. Anyone catching them (lol)? Deep or shallow? Crank or jig. Just looking to sling something at something other than crappie.

Thanks!

It's been a few years since I've targeted saugeyes at Cowan but if I were going to do it. I'd probably opt for either a jigging spoon OR a jig head tipped with 1/2 of a crawler. Points and sides of points would be my 1st choice fishing 5-15 foot deep. (using jigs) 2nd choice would be flats especially near break-lines (drop-offs) (using jigging spoons)
If I had to pick a 3rd lure it would be a shad rap, eyes love them.
