[quanutum-man]

my names jordan im 17 in cincinnati oh for work painting the roebling suspension bridge trieing to find some good lakes i dont have a boat so theres only a wide vareity of places i can fish that is of course if anyone out there would like to take a youth fishing

[martijw]

Hey, I am from the Toledo area so you bet your *** I walleye fish, white bass, and smallies on the Maumee. I dont have a boat yet, but I fish any pond that I can get permission too. I also hit up a few lakes in Michigan and Illinois for some pretty good luck. Still waiting to get the dream bass though...I will conclude by mentioning the fact that I carry a consolidated Plano tackle box in my car with two spinner rods that are ready to go at a moments notice. If your water has bass and I have the time, I am there.

[Fishohio]

My name is Rick live in NE Ohio. I fish Atwood, Tappan, Leesville, Saltfork, and sometimes Westbranch.Have a 14' homemade Bass Taxi. Love throwin Tubes!!

GO BUCKEYES!!!!

[thetr20one]

Yea we really do have a lot of ponds out here. Im basically surrounded by them from all sides. Just counting only my neighbors like adjacent to me there's like 8 i think. Plus my pond well mine is actually 2 cause there's like a 1/2 acre maybe a little bigger next to the 10 acre one. Also behind my house in the woods are 2 ponds next to each other that are decent size. So I guess for ponds I could walk to in like 5 min or less there's 12. Now if i actually got in my car and drove for 5 min its endless how many there are. I am actually right around the corner from spencer lake if any one knows where that is.

Yea I know exactly where Spencer lake is and if I knew your address I would be able to pull into your drive without directions. I dont' want your address but I just know Medina very well!!

My name is Bob. I fish mostly at Tappan lake, with occasional trips to Clendending Lake and Salt Fork Lake. I started fishing only a few years ago, and find it mesmerizing to be out fishing while the sun comes up, the turkeys are gobbling, deer will be snorting, and, hopefully, the bass are slamming a black jitterbug.  ;D

I do not currently own a boat and will most likely not for a couple years.

[Chance_Taker4]

My name is Chance. I live in Toledo but go to college in Defiance. I fish in mostly reservoirs like Swanton, Wauseon, Delta, and Metamora. But I also fish the Maumee River, Maumme Bay, Oxbow Lake (once when I was really little), Harrison Lake, and any farm ponds that let me.

[Grey Wolf]

Welcome to BR Chance.

[Nate]

My name is Nate, I live in Columbus Ohio and fish everywhere. I grew up on Buckeye Lake and know it in and out so i guess you would call it my home lake. I fish the ABA Tournament Trail.

[Robert Riley]

Hey, my name is Robert. Im coming to Ohio for the next few days, visiting a friend at Patterson AFB. I want to go fishing for smallies!!!! Anyone know any places or want to take me there? Im a pretty avid fisherman, so there wont be much of a learning curve!

[Sfritr]

Hey everyone, I live in Lebanon, Oh. and just moved back from Michigan in Feb I fish any lake I can get my boat into. Just got back from Patoka lake in Indiana where my wife caught her PB 6.75lb LM. It was a hog!! BTW she fishing with a BPS tourney baitcaster rod and a zebco 33 reel. It was hilarious.

[EJVH3]

Edgar from Akron, OH. I live in Portage Lakes (Coventry Twp.) and fish the Bad Bass Champs tournament trail. My favorite lakes are Portage Lakes, Mosquito Lake and the Black River/Lake Erie. I fish out of a 2004 Triton 196LE w/ a Mercury 200 EFI. I mostly focus on active fish with Crankbaits. I would love to work on my jig skills for those not so active days.

I would encourage all of you to go to the toolbar near the top of the page and click on the Member Map on the far right. zoom in on the map and place a pin near your home area. It is always good to see where other members are located in case you may need to pick up a rider or are looking for local lake advice when traveling to a new lake.

As I posted previously, I am in Lebanon, Oh at Shake Run. I fish at least once a week so if anyone is looking to head out let me know.

BTW, I just fished yesterday and the fall bite is in full swing, we slayed em.....

[emowens]

My name is Ethan and I live in Centerville, a souther suburb of Dayton.  I'm a bit all over the Dayton area - lots of municipal ponds (unfortunately), and the metro parks around Dayton.  Each spring I go down to Dale Hollow to hopefully land the next big world record smallie.  

 

I'm always looking for new fishing spots or to connect.  My dad and I river fish a decent amount, but two grandkids has kept him busy, so I've lost any semblance of a fishing partner.  

[JG233]

Way to revive this thread @emowens!

I'm out in Athens, OH for the next few years (except for the summers). I'm in the first year of my PhD at OU. I'm hoping to get my kayak out on the water at least once a week until it gets too cold. 

[cfout4050]

I’m chad always looking for people to fish with in the south west part of ohio.  I live inCinncinati

[emowens]

@JG233 what’s your PHD in?  I was on the same situation as you some years back. Got my masters degree at ETSU and was always trying to squeeze in a wet line when I could. 

@cfout4050 thx for the reply. Ever gone to Sharon’s woods lake? 

 

@Sfritr if you’re offering I’d gladly take you up on fishing! 

 

Thanks for the replies all! 

[JG233]

@emowens English - I got my MFA and taught at UMass Boston for a few years. I've been able to go out fishing once we week for the last couple weeks. So far so good. I'm planning on going to Tycoon or Burr Oak this Thursday.

[Pro Logcatcher]

@cfout4050 fall bite is on; however I’m not crushing them. I’ve been pushing too waters maybe too much...

 

 

I’m for sure fishing Thursday. Unsure where yet 

[JG233]

So I'm fishing Ross Lake tomorrow. Let me know how you guys do in OH thread I created. Let's start sharing some reports - not exact spots or anything - just basics.

 

Good luck!

I’m thinking either SpriNg Lakes In Bellbrook, or the park pond on social row. 

 

@JG233 good idea. Will do

[ZebcoZak]

Name is Zak and live in Gahanna, 10 minutes east of Columbus.  I typically fish out of my 1648 Jon on Hoover and Alum.  Also like to wade up and down Big Walnut and Alum Creek whenever I have some time.  Looking to learn the bass population of Hoover a little better this year.  And want to catch my first reservoir musky out of Alum.  I have caught a few wading below the reservoir, but nothing in the open water.
