Well, I've been on vacation for the last week, and thought it was time to catch up on some quality time outdoors. My Dad is recovering greatly from his heart surgery a few months ago, and me and Christian decided to treat him to a couple of days of fishing. It's always fun for the "boys" to get away, and we hit a couple of places near home that offer easy access for Dad, and no worrying about a 4yr old and water.
The first place was in the very far corner of N.W.Ohio, called La Su Ann Wildlife area. There are a combination of 13 small lakes and ponds that hold some awesome bluegill(10+") and bass fishing( must be 17" to keep). It used to be privately owned, but the State acquired it and offers fishing by permit and reservation only, and has turned it into an awesome fishery. We fished a small 10 acer lake and had a great time, catching about 30 bass and bluegill in about 3 hours.
Here are a couple more from a local park just for kids and their parents - No fish caught, but still a great day!....
Finally some scenery pics of the Maumee river - the dam and canal at Grand Rapids/Providence. Cool wading on a hot day!!
Thanks for looking!
