Ohio
Ohio is a state in the East North Central region of the Midwestern United States. Of the fifty states, it is the 34th largest by area, the seventh most populous, and the tenth most densely populated. The state’s capital and largest city is Columbus. Ohio is bordered by Lake Erie to the north, Pennsylvania to the east, West Virginia to the southeast, Kentucky to the southwest, Indiana to the west, and Michigan to the northwest. The state takes its name from the Ohio River, whose name in turn originated from the Seneca word ohiːyo’, meaning “good river”, “great river” or “large creek”. Partitioned from the Northwest Territory, Ohio was the 17th state admitted to the Union on March 1, 1803, and the first under the Northwest Ordinance. Ohio is historically known as the “Buckeye State” after its Ohio buckeye trees, and Ohioans are also known as “Buckeyes”.Wikipedia
These Amazing Spots Near Ottawa, Ohio (Ottawa River) Are Perfect To Go Fishing
Few things in the world are more relaxing – or more exciting, depending on the day – than fishing. With so many freshwater lakes and rivers, fishing in Ottawa, Ohio (Ottawa River) is top-rated. From fly fishing to shore casting, here are some of the best spots to try your luck. Please note, that these aren’t ranked in any particular order, but we have mentioned some of the fish you’re most likely to catch.
Ohio fishing regulations apply to the river and all inland waters in the Metroparks.
The Spring Walleye Run
March madness on the Maumee River means a frenzy of fishermen wading into the cold water to cast their lines for walleye. The popular gamefish swims upriver to spawn in numbers that are unparalleled on the Great Lakes, and Side Cut Metropark is right in the middle of the action.
Starting mid- to late-Mach, fishermen line up to cast jigs and reel in keepers. Vendors set up on the shore and spectators stop to stare. The spawn is one of the factors that make Lake Erie the Walleye Capital of the World, and put the Maumee on the map as a premier angling destination.
More Fishing at Side Cut
About the time the walleye run ends, white bass move in to spawn. Crappie, smallmouth bass, bluegills, carp, catfish, gar, bullhead, red-eared and other sunfish, Northern pike and yellow perch are among the species commonly caught from the river.
Because of occasional flooding, many of these species also find their way into Siegert Lake and Silver Lake at Side Cut.
Fishing at Farnsworth & Providence
Upriver from Side Cut, the other Maumee River Metroparks are also destinations during the spring runs of walleye and white bass, as well as a variety of other river species most of the year. A popular destination is just below the Providence Dam.
Boaters have direct access to the river from a boat launch at Farnsworth. The park also has accessible platforms for fishing.
Fishing at Wiregrass Lake
Bluegill, largemouth bass and channel catfish are stocked in this small, scenic lake. There is fishing access from shore or an accessible fishing dock, which also has a roll-off canoe and kayak launch.
Fishing at Pearson
The Ohio Division of Wildlife stocks the lake at Pearson with rainbow trout from the Castallia hatchery, providing a unique fishing opportunity to catch this cold water species in early spring. Fishermen also take catfish and other species. The lake’s stair-stepped shore makes it an accessible place to introduce children to fishing.
When I visit a website for information I only use small part of the article or page and I encourage you to vist all websites I talk about for more information if I didn’t answer your question Metroparkstoledo.com a great website I find as a great resource for local information I can’t find else where.

1.Buyer Guide for Kayaks Paddles
I went shopping online at 4 different online stores to find the right paddle for my kayak.
The first store I went to was REI to get more infomation about buying the right paddle for my new kayak. There are a few thing to think about shift, blade, material and price, and last length. By choosing the right paddle you can save yourself a lot energy. Here is some information from REI:
Figuring out the right size (length) of paddle is surprisingly straightforward. The wider your boat is, the longer your paddle needs to be. Your height is also a factor, especially for a narrower boat: Taller paddlers need longer paddles.

2.How to find a good kayak rental company?
I like traveling and trying new things. I have been to 20 different city this past month. I have enjoy good food, good weather, roof top bars, and the beach. I also have enjoy learning and listening to interesting people. There are different rental programs across the country at universities and colleges. I came a cross a program about the local University of North Florida (UNF), they offer “Gear Check-out & Adventure Trips.” The students can use the gear for free, for example, kayaks, canoing, and rock climbing.
The programs offered University of North Florida (UNF) allow students, staff and visitors to learn about team work in different environment. I like to see programs like that be very success like it is at our local university.
