The
Records Fall As Ohio Sauger Keeps Surging In 1976
Wildlife officials report three sauger state records broken in 1976 along the Ohio River with potential for another. Dick Oesterle of Parkersburg first set a 19.25 inch 2.25 pound mark near Belleville on June 6, then William Shanks of Bridgeport broke it on Sept. 29 with an 18.5 inch 2.32 pound catch near Wheeling. Fred Price of Belpre added an 18.75 inch 2.87 pound sauger in the Belleville pool on Oct. 8. The sauger is abundant in the river and offers winter fishing, especially below navigation dams and at tributary mouths.
