Photographed by – John Maxwell, Indiana DNR 2019-2020 INDIANA FISHING GUIDE 1 MESSAGES You may not connect “state forest” with fishing. But you should. Greene-Sullivan State Forest in southwest Indiana, offers more than 120 lakes among its 8,900 acres. Spanning its namesake counties, Greene-Sullivan is earning a reputation as “the fishing forest.” Whether you are ice fishing, pan fishing or seeking a bigger chal- lenge, Greene-Sullivan offers tons of space to explore and test your skills. Formed from past strip mining, its lakes range from a half-acre to 220-acre Bass Lake. Most are more than 20 feet deep. Some are more than 75 feet deep. Bass Lake is an obvious choice for big fish at Greene-Sullivan, but try 59-acre Duck Lake, too. Both are annually stocked with muskie, and some have grown to more Williamstown, MA | Birmingham, AL than 40 inches. Spring rainbow trout are stocked every year at 25-acre Airline Pit, and channel cats are stocked every other year at 80-acre Wampler Lake and 42-acre Reservoir 26. The next couple of years will bring even more opportunities to Greene-Sullivan. Three recla- mation projects have created new lakes out of old highwall pits. Yellowwood Lake, in Yellowwood State Forest in Brown County, is another standout. Its 131 acres of clear water offer bluegill, redear sunfish and largemouth bass in a quiet, natural setting About This Guide surrounded by wooded hills and the many other attractions and accommodations in the area. Fishing opportunity also knocks at nearly every other State Forest, from the small ponds at Owen-Putnam to 294-acre Deam Lake in Clark County.

But underwater, the Jon Gulley, Dane Fay, John Corey, structure that’s helped make them great for fishing has rotted away. Evelyn Haddad, Chris Sobolowski Thanks to volunteers like you, we’re restoring that habitat. Previous work at Sullivan Lake, Cecil M. Harden Reservoir (better known as Rac- coon Lake), and Monroe Lake are great examples. Volunteers from the Indiana Bass Federation (IBF), Bass Unlimited and other anglers joined forces. Local businesses donated pallets and cinderblocks. We’ll add more structure this year. This partnership will continue to work toward expanding habitat enhancement and doing experimental largemouth bass stockings of 8- to 10-inch fish at Raccoon and Monroe through 2021. We’ll evaluate success as we go. We want and need to do more. To help fund the bass stockings, IBF secured a FishAmerica Foundation grant. Money helps, but we could use more hands. Watch for a habitat enhancement project coming to a reservoir near you. Together, just like at Sullivan, Raccoon and Monroe, we can maintain and improve our reservoir fisheries so they will continue to provide successful angling adventures for us, no matter their age.

  • SPORT FISH of OHIO Identification DIVISION of WILDLIFE
    SPORT FISH OF OHIO identification DIVISION OF WILDLIFE 1 With more than 40,000 miles of streams, 2.4 million acres of Lake Erie and inland water, and 450 miles of the Ohio River, Ohio supports a diverse and abundant fish fauna represented by more than 160 species. Ohio’s fishes come in a wide range of sizes, shapes and colors...and live in a variety of aquatic habitats from our largest lakes and rivers to the smallest ponds and creeks. Approximately one-third of these species can be found in this guide. This fish identification guide provides color illustrations to help anglers identify their catch, and useful tips to help catch more fish. We hope it will also increase your awareness of the diversity of fishes in Ohio. This book also gives information about the life history of 27 of Ohio’s commonly caught species, as well as information on selected threatened and endangered species. Color illustrations and names are also offered for 20 additional species, many of which are rarely caught by anglers, but are quite common throughout Ohio. Fishing is a favorite pastime of many Ohioans and one of the most enduring family traditions. A first fish or day shared on the water are memories that last a lifetime. It is our sincere hope that the information in this guide will contribute significantly to your fishing experiences and understanding of Ohio’s fishes. Good Fishing! The ODNR Division of Wildlife manages the fisheries of more than 160,000 acres of inland water, 7,000 miles of streams, and 2.25 million acres of Lake Erie.

Content on the site is made possible through grant funding from the Institution of Museum and Library Services to the Indiana State Library under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act; commonly referred to as an LSTA grant. In the spring of 2012, the Syracuse-Wawasee Historical Museum and the Syracuse Public Library collaborated to digitize a treasure trove of area memorabilia with the assistance of a $9,000 LSTA Grant administered by the Indiana State Library. By the end of the one year grant period, the Syracuse-Wawasee Digital Archives included nearly 1,500 images from the museum as well as local residents. Museum volunteers continued digitizing an additional 1,500 images during the next 4 years. As a result of local postcard collector Garry Ringler graciously offering the opportunity to digitize his collection, another LSTA grant in the amount of $10,000 was awarded to the museum and the library in the summer of 2017. Three project assistants were kept busy digitizing and entering metadata on Garry’s post cards and pictures as well as those from several other local sources.
