My choices are limited living in southwest Ohio. Indian Lake used to be my go to lake until the last few years and then it changed to Buckeye Lake. Might change this year depending on Buckeyes water level and parking. Lake Erie is always on the list. Get there at least 3 times a year depending when it freezes.

Mine is the 1 acre pond at the top of our street. Since I started ice fishing last year it's the only place I've fished. Plenty of bluegills caught last year. This year I'm hoping to go out to Alum, Buckeye and anywhere else I get recommendations for and a partner/group I can tag along with.......

I did grow up on a lake in the state up north that I'm partial to rhymes with Ain't Bear

Do IFO members continue on Alum when dock tourneys finish? It would be cool to go out with people I've fished with at the dock tourneys!

Mogadore and Wingfoot are 5 min from my house. So they are my home lakes.

Mosquito is always a good weekend trip. My budy has a camp there.
Lake erie is a good weekend trip also. My dad lives in Port Clinton.

But I manage to hit portage lakes area and berlin a couple times a year.

Amen to that!   Anytime the fish is longer than your rods and reel is a blast!

1, nimi
2, moggy
3, the foot
Going to hit portage lakes hard this season. Just moved about a mile away from nimi. I told the old lady that the lakes had nothing to do with the house we bought. She said that she's smarter than I think she is... ;)
