i coudnt tell ya but here is the address of the campground we stay at so we can fish it
Coshocton City & County Park District
23253 State Route 83 North
Coshocton, Ohio 43812
Phone (740) 622-7528........the river is a 5 minute walk from the grounds and there are even ponds stock with them.
.....great river known for big flatties i seen a guy catch a 50lb on gold fish....i know thats not big to you paylaker guys but it is a hell of a lot harder to catch fish from a river then a paylake.

I fish the Lil Miami a lot. I never really caught any thing big. Just in the 10lb to 15lb but i have seen a lot of big fish caught. I going to try out the place that you are talking about. River fishing is a harder than pay lake fishing.
Is there a lot of gar in that spot you are talking about?

WTF river fishing is ez.get a boat and drift.bounce the botton with live bait find a hole let your bait sit a short time and you will get fish.if you get somefish close to a bank you can fish off try it.i never got any flatheads to talk about.best fish was a 40" carp. in kingsmill theres a old dam great smallmouth in its pool.opps the Little Miami River

nothing against paylakes but what are you smoking saying that......if i took you to a river that you have never seen before and said find the cats....it could take hours at looking at the depths, ledges, ect. just to find them.....But with a paylake you could troll the lake with smart cast or w/e it is called to find the depth and stuff in a matter of 30mins.....just look at it this way find the fish in a 5acre pond or in miles and miles of rivers.....just read the last sentence of Ratliff's post  |

Catfishchad is right about the river being harder, especially catching big fish. That is why i fish paylakes lol. Might try the river this year though, for some cats off of my boat.

I Can get fish in a river and cant get fish in a paylake.i never have the rt bait or someone is fishing in the only good spot in the mud hole we call paylakes.still i know there are BIGFISH in paylakes and a lot more fish then you would find in a same amount of water in a river.still the bigfish in the mudholes most likey come from the rivers........so off to the mudhole and try again!!!!!!!!!
