Hello I am new to this forum and wanted to post some information on ice fishing at the Clear Fork Reservoir. I went in front of council about two weeks ago and introduced legislation to allow ice fishing. I am waiting on final approval and should hear something in the next two or three weeks. After approval I will post information on here as we'll as on the city of Mansfield's web site.

Great Job!

If you need a petition I am sure we could get a 1,000 great members to sign it.

Focus on the economic impact that it would bring to the local bait shops, restaurants, gas stations and motels.

Also point out that sites like IFO promote and teach ice safety!

does anyone know the reason why ice fishing isn't permitted there? liability maybe? it's been that way as long as i can remember, (which is a long time ;D).

I talked to ODNR today and they told me that the city of youngstown owns it. im guessn liability is a main reason. But the only time they have allowed any fishing at all , is when they hold a special tourney for handicap people. To me thats a great idea coming from the city. since fishing isnt permitted it would give the less fortunate a chance to catch some good fish.
