On a first trip to Akron City, check incoming water, one bend in the old channel and a point near deep water with a moving lure, then slow down with a jig or worm where you get a bite.
A medium spinning rod with 8- to 10-pound line handles most jigs, worms and small lures at Akron City, while a medium-heavy rod is better for bass jigs and heavier bottom rigs.
At Akron City, pick one cove and the closest point or drop into deep water, then fish that small area well before making a long move.
