Fishermen Warned Off Lake Erie Proving Ground
United Press International reports the Lake Erie zone ten miles off Camp Perry near Port Clinton is shelled by heavy artillery on Tuesdays to Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Maps and warning boats guide marinas and bait shops, while walleye fishermen fear loss of access to top reefs such as Turtle Point Cone Reef Flatrock Reef Crib Reef Round Reef and Toussaint Reef. Officials insist safety measures protect fishing, but sportsmen doubt the adequacy of closures as the region’s fishing rebound faces new limits. Plan to avoid the area when planning offshore trips.
