Fun fishing but limited camping

I live near Stoehr Fishing Area and fish there often. It has excellent shore fishing on the two ponds. The main species are black bass and bluegill, however I did catch a northern pike once. There are grass carp as well.

There really is no campsite to speak of. There is a picnic shelter and grill, but no fire pit - campfires are not allowed. A tent could be carries a short distance from the parking area to a fairly level spot, or a little farther to the back for a little more privacy. Camping is free, but limited to 24 hours.

Enjoy the sound of pheasants and song birds in this area. It is not heavily wooded, but there are oaks, walnuts, and buckeye trees as well as a variety of aquatic plants.
