Chippewa Lake Park Opens for Fishing July 1
Chippewa Lake Park will reopen to fishing after being closed as Propagation Waters by the Ohio Fish and Game Conservation Department. The state added more than 25 000 bluegills and bass over one pound and 8 000 large muskellunge, plus over 500 000 baby fish. Last season officials joined the lake, removing taro and catfish over 10 pounds. More than 14 000 tons of fish were taken, due to carp muddling water and catfish eating smaller fish. The reopening begins mid night June 30 with fishing starting July 1.
