rivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> Spoons are designed in a variety of color combinations, sizes, and shapes, and I will change them according to conditions and fish activity. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>My favorite color combinations are generally more natural ones that resemble baitfish such as silver, gold, or copper, as well as ones that are paired with the likes of blues, oranges, and greens. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have come to discover that the silver flash and wobble of a spoon tends to have a similar resemblance to the baitfish, and when presented with the correct presentation, it&#8217;s hard for the steelhead to resist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will often allow spoons to sink once they hit the water, lift them a foot or two off the bottom, let them sink again, and then repeat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A straight retrieve will work as well, especially if you impart and pause and twitch every 5 to 10 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes down to shape, I would go for oblong and teardrop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the size of the river and river conditions, I usually prefer spoons within 2 inches to 3 inches long. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For dirty, muddy water and bigger rivers, I fish with large spoons of between 3 and 4 inches. For low, clear water and smaller rivers, smaller spoons seem more natural and work better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Best Steelhead Lures Ohio:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Little Cleo:<\/strong> The Little Cleo is a weighty spoon designed for faster and deeper waters. I find the 2\/5 oz, 3\/4 oz, and 1.25 oz sizes to be preferable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Krocodile Spoon: <\/strong>The Krocodile Spoon is highly regarded for steelhead and salmon fishing as it flutters effectively during both the lift and the drop.

Bright colors such as chartreuse and orange are a great choice in dirty or stained water. Other color combinations to consider are silver and blue, silver and green, and silver and black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My favorite crankbait size for steelhead is between 3 inches to 4 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Crankbaits will always fish well in most Ohio tributaries when used properly and as long as you ensure you have the correct sizes and colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I prefer to cast and retrieve crankbaits with a slow swing retrieve, and I add a rip-twitch-rip-pause method about every 5 to 10 feet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your crankbaits are hitting the bottom raise your rod tip and try again. Keep raising your rod tip until it stops bumping the bottom. Ideally, you want to always be 1 to 2 feet off the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Crankbaits For Ohio Steelhead<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The crankbaits listed below have been some of

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow sponsored\">Flatfish<\/a> are one of those must-have steelhead lures for every angler. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This lure has worked for me in all kinds of water conditions and has always been my top lures when fishing cold water, winter fishing, and when the steelhead are not very active. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The effectiveness of this lure is due to its crazy wide wobble that drives any steelhead crazy and thereby triggering aggressive strikes. It can also be fished very slowly for those less agressive steelhead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for lure size, I usually stick to 2 3\/4 inches for medium to large rivers. For dirtier water and when there&#8217;s a need to get a bit deeper, I would go for 3 3\/8 to 4 1\/4 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kwikish comes in a variety of great colors and combinations. My favorite colors in most water conditions are an all silver color or a combination of silver-green\/chartreuse. However, I have also done well with black because I think that the steelhead thinks it&#8217;s a black leech. Another productive combination for me is Silver-blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jigs For Ohio Steelhead<\/h2>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id_3ca4fd-ae alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_190737-bb{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_190737-bb > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_190737-bb\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"364\" src=\"https:\/\/troutandsteelhead.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Hawken-Marabou-Series-AeroJigs-min.jpg\" alt=\"Hawken Marabou Series AeroJigs are good jigs for salmon\" class=\"wp-image-10140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/troutandsteelhead.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Hawken-Marabou-Series-AeroJigs-min.jpg 450w, https:\/\/troutandsteelhead.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Hawken-Marabou-Series-AeroJigs-min-300x243.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column_4dafaf-4d > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column_4dafaf-4d\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<p>Jig lures may not be popular amongst steelhead anglers, but they are very effective, and this makes them one of the best lures for Ohio steelhead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jigs come in a variety of sizes and colors, but my favorites are 2 to 3-inch marabou jigs in black, olive, and white.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Jigs are very effective at any time and in any water condition, but often they are the best type of lure during cold water temperatures when steelhead tend not to be very active. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They will get down deep and move very slowly to trigger bites from less aggressive steelhead.
