Current Fishing Weather
Wind Speed and Direction
Wind Direction:
Wind Speed:
Wind Direction and Speed are one of the most important aspects for choosing a fishing spot. An offshore wind can help land-based anglers with longer casting distances, while an onshore wind will make kayak fishing safer. Often fish will also move to certain feeding areas depending on the wind direction. Check out the long term wind forecast at the charts below.
Fishing Barometer
Atmospheric Pressure:
Change since midnight:
Trend for next 6 hours:
Atmospheric or Barometric Pressure affects fish activity. The best fishing can be had on a rising barometer and also the time just before it is falling. A steady barometer in the higher ranges can also mean good fishing. A falling or low barometer reading without much change is usually not a very good time for fishing.
UV Effect on Fishing
As a rule of thumb, the higher the UV index, the deeper fish will move. Shallow water fishing is best done at times with a low UV index. When the UV is high, stick to early mornings, late evenings and shaded areas. The effect is less noticable in deeper water, but often a higher UV index can produce good results in the deep.

Fishing Overview Logansport
Fishing in Logansport, Indiana is built around the Wabash and Eel Rivers, which merge right in town and create a mix of riffles, runs, pools, and backwaters that hold gamefish all year. Shoreline access is plentiful from city parks, bridges, and pull-offs, and the relatively modest current makes these rivers friendly to small boats, kayaks, and wading anglers.
Spring is prime time for smallmouth bass, walleye, sauger, and panfish. As water levels stabilize after snowmelt and spring rains, focus on current breaks just below riffles and at the heads of pools. Smallmouth stack along rocky banks and gravel bars; 1/8–1/4 oz marabou jigs, tube jigs, and small swimbaits in natural baitfish colors are consistent producers. For walleye and sauger, work the deeper slots and tailouts with jig-and-minnow combos or soft plastics slowly bounced along bottom. Panfish move into slack eddies, brush, and flooded shoreline cover—micro-jigs tipped with waxworms or small pieces of nightcrawler under a float excel in these areas.
By summer, vegetation grows thick in slack water and shallower margins, and the rivers’ gamefish slide into deeper holes, mid-river boulders, and shaded banks. Early and late in the day, smallmouth bass and rock bass crush topwaters like poppers and walking baits worked across current seams and along rocky riprap near town. Midday, switch to bottom-oriented tactics: ned rigs, tubes, and compact crankbaits ticking bottom in 4–8 feet of water. Channel catfish and flathead catfish become a major draw in summer; target them after dark in deep outside bends, below logjams, and at the mouths of feeder creeks. Cut shad, bluegill chunks (where legal to use), and live baitfish on slip-sinker or three-way rigs get bit when positioned just upstream of cover and allowed to settle naturally.
Fall brings a renewed push of smallmouth, walleye, white bass, and hybrid striped bass into shallower runs as water temperatures drop. This is the time to cover water with reaction baits: medium-diving crankbaits, inline spinners, and 3–4" swimbaits. Work current seams tight to rocky points and bridge pilings. When you find bait dimpling on the surface, there’s often a mixed school of white bass, hybrids, and drum underneath; small spoons and blade baits vertically jigged or burned through the school can lead to fast action. Carp and buffalo cruise slower flats and eddies—stealthy presentations with simple corn or dough baits on light line will put plenty of fish on the bank.
Winter fishing around Logansport is slower but still viable during mild stretches. Walleyes and saugers concentrate in the deepest wintering holes and below dams. Present compact jigs and blade baits vertically with slow, subtle lifts and drops, staying tight to bottom. Cold-water smallmouth often hold at the tail ends of deep pools; downsized hair jigs and finesse plastics fished painstakingly slow can still produce. Catfish become more lethargic, but persistent anglers can pick up channels and the occasional flathead by soaking fresh cut bait in the deepest, slowest sections of the hole.
Across seasons, the most consistent strategy on the Wabash and Eel is to read current and structure. Look for transitions—rock to sand, shallow to deep, fast to slow—and put your lure just on the soft side of the current. Keep a compact tackle selection: a medium spinning rod with 10–15 lb braid and a fluorocarbon leader will handle most bass, walleye, and drum work, while a heavier setup with 20–30 lb line covers catfish and larger rough fish. With diverse habitat and accessible banks, Logansport’s rivers reward anglers who move, experiment, and let the current guide their approach.
