Indiana - Monroe Lake
Strong, aggressive hybrid stripers grow fat on this 10,750-acre reservoir, Indiana's largest. Fish to 8 pounds are frequent catches, and some top 15 pounds. Make zigzag passes over the main river channel while trolling red-and-white Hyper Striper jigs. The stretch from Salt Creek near the dam up the lake to Hardin Ridge is particularly nice.

Guide's Tips
Species: Crappies
Guide: Dedra Hawkins; The Fishin' Shedd; cgi.fishinshedd.com; 812-837-9474
Rig Specifics: 5 1/2- to 6-foot, ultralight spinning rod with 4- to 6-pound Shakespeare Cajun Red line. Fish the Lil' Hustler Crappie Tube on a 1/16-ounce lead jighead.
Quick Tip: You want a calm day with a light wind in the mid to upper 70s. The sunnier the better, and the crappies tend to be about 8 to 10 feet deep.
Where to Fish: Look for brush and rocky points on the east side of the causeway.
