Ohio Insider: Lake Erie walleye fishing is great, but potential ‘fly in the ointment’ exists

Featured, Fishing, Home Page News, National Fishing, Ohio, Opinion /

I had the unique opportunity to fish with Gov. Mike DeWine and a couple of his grandkids during the 45th annual Governor’s Fish Ohio Day last month.
It was my first time fishing alongside the governor himself after about 10 years of attending Governor’s Fish Ohio Day on Lake Erie. The annual event is aimed to highlight the Lake Erie fishery and drive home its importance to the region’s tourism and economy.

Featured, Fishing, Home Page News, Hunting, National Fishing, National Hunting, Nature Page & Night Sky, Ohio, Opinion /

I was truly surprised when the legislature in the recent state budget proceedings reckoned deep cuts in the H2Ohio Initiative.
Gov. Mike DeWine launched the water quality initiative in 2019 in an effort to improve public drinking water, restore wetlands, and to reduce agricultural runoff into the state’s waterways. To date, the program has benefitted more than 16,000 acres and enrolled more than 3,200 farmers in best management practices.

Featured, Features, Fishing, National Fishing, Ohio /

For as long as he can remember, Doug Clifford has been in the business of educating kids – on and off the water.
But, it was an encounter with a childhood neighbor that really sent Clifford to school on his fishing lessons.
“I was in junior high and all the guys would talk about their fishing adventures,” he remembered.

We’re a bit more than a month removed from the 2025 spring turkey season closing in Ohio. To get some perspective on the success of the season, I contacted Mark Wiley, who’s in charge of the ODNR Division of Wildlife’s turkey program.
