Anglers build remote control boat for Raystown Lake fishing
Two hunters of striped bass create a 3 foot battery powered boat to cast 300 yards into a spillway at Raystown Lake where boats are banned. They caught 14 stripers in 1982 and later 19 pounder before the craft was outlawed then ruled legal by a local magistrate. The Fish Commission maintains the device is illegal except at Raystown while considering new rules.

Coyote Population Increases in Ohio Open Wildlife Debate
Ohio's coyote numbers rise linking to habitat on NASA Plum Brook site in Erie and Huron counties. The area hosts deer, woodchucks, rabbits, foxes and mice, supporting predators like red-tailed hawks, owls, red foxes, gray fox, feral dogs and cats, and coyotes. Coyotes have persisted at the NASA base since 1976 with tracks and scat common along roads. Trappers in nearby counties have captured about a dozen coyotes in recent years amid local controversy.
