The website ishttp://everythingconneautohio.com. The page that might
interest this group is the steelhead fishing page. It is billed as the
steelhead capital of the world. The people of Oregon may take issue
with that statement. When I was a kid Lake Erie was dying and all I
caught in Conneaut Creek was Bullhead. They have come a long way back,
but The Steelhead Capital of the World I think is going a little too far.

I was there last March for my brother's funeral, but did not get to
fish, but every time I crossed Conneaut Creek there were a half dozen
fisherman fishing.

Has anyone fished there? If so tell me what you think of it.

Thanks.

Ed


Ed; you're from Conneaut? How old are you?

Ahh, then you didn't know my old college buddy, John Bunnell. He would
be 50 this year if he were still with us...

Riverman,

The Bunnell name is familiar, but I wouldn't have known him since I left
Conneaut when I was 17 and for the last 30 years only went back there
every 5 years for High School class reunions. I will go back for our
55th the last week in July.

Ed
