Default Help! Looking for lake in Midwest that has boat rentals for fishing.

Tom,

Near Burgettstown, PA, is a lake called Cross Creek. As you are driving down
the road that leads to the lake you will pass a dirt parking area that has a
license and bait shop, they rented aluminum row boats, but they add the 9.9
motor for you. They launch the boat and you fish. No idea on the price.
Cross Creek is a small 9.9 lake, I have seen 6-7 lb Largemouth caught on it.
Conneaut Lake in PA also rents boats, I know you can rent pontoons and small
runabouts. The lake is 3 miles long. Fishing can be rough once the skiers
come out.

Hello Everyone,

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I'm taking my 10 year old son fishing

for
the first time. Unfortunately, I just found out that the lake I was
planning to take him to does not have a boat rental facility. They used to
but it closed. So I'm back to the planning stage. I'm looking for a good
bass lake in central or northern Ohio (preferred), northern Indiana,
southern Michigan, or western Penn. The only other requirement is the
availability of a shore based boat rental facility. Even a row boat will
do.

Now I know you good folks will not reveal that hidden secret of yours

where
the bass fight all day for the priviledge of eating your bait. I'm OK

with
that. Afterall, some secrets are meant to stay that way. So I'm good to

go
with your second or third favorite, or whatever you choose to reveal to

me.
My son and I will appreciate any and all help.

Thanks,
Tom
