Welcome To Ohio Fishing With Dan

Hello,
Welcome to my new blog "OHIOFISHINGWITHDAN"! I'm Dan! I would like to share with you some of my experiences fishing in Ohio from my earliest memories to the present!
I have been fishing since I was 3 years old, thanks to my Dad! I had the good fortune to have grown up at a private lake in Columbiana County and to this day it's still one of the best bodies of water I have ever fished!
I remember Dad digging earth worms from a friends composed pile (which at that age was just as exciting as going fishing) then He and my Mom walked me to the lake,put me in a row boat and away we went! Dad had already pre rigged the fishing pole so he baited it and dropped the hook over the side. It didn't take long before the bobber went under. Dad handled this one but gave me the chance on the next one. We were into a batch of large Bluegill and I was hooked on fishing from then on!
As I aged, my interest grew to Bass fishing with all it's fancy gear and techniques. You never seem to have enough gear or technique for the almighty Bass, however, I never tire of catching nice Bluegills to this day! Sure, I don't have to dig worms, because I catch just as many on small jigs and flys on a fly rod! It's quite a thrill to hook into a 9-10 inch Bluegill on a fly rod! If you haven't tried it, give it a try!
That's it for now so enjoy the outdoors and take that small fry out fishing! He and/or she will always remember it!
