That Sucks!

That blows for anyone wanting to use live bait up there. Glad I only use artificials when I go up there(well most of the time). If I go for cats then I take my own homemade baits. Maybe they wouldn't be selling enough bait to constitiute having the marina store open just yet. I find it kinda weird that they haven't said when it'll be open.I'd almost bet all my fishing gear that by Memorial Day weekend it'll be open.Even though I don't buy bait up there I ususally stop in there when I'm done and buy something to eat and drink. Guess if they're not open when I make it up there then I'll have to pack that stuff with me as well.

 

I'll be getting my bait in Conover east of 235 just off 36,as their a hole seller as well you'll get my bang for your buck.Their just south of the lumber yard by the old school.

 

Just when you thought things couldn't get worse! Bureaucrats ought to be illegal.

 

When they started putting OUR fish/hunt license money in the general fund years ago it started going down hill from there.

LOL, Kaiser is probably like most other state owned recreational properties and not managed by the state but by private enterprise.

 

anyone that needs bait there is a bait shop in conover, ohio............... SR 36 west go 4 ml. to alcony conover rd. turn left, sec. place on right fred will take care of you if need bait and tackel. about 10 min"s south of kiser lake

 

Artificials work great for me at Kiser for trolling. Hit your local grocery store and pick up some shrimp for cats. For bluegills you can get wax worms at walmart. Crappie use a jointed shad rap.

Maybe but the decision to privatize was made by bureaucrats!

Your link brings us back to this page, can you give us a better one?

 

Until recently, the marina was always privately run at Kiser. The state did have a nice shop though. Why did the ranger decide to remove all the rip rap? I wish they'd out source his job. That guy is clueless.

 

Wow, I'm suprised a ranger would have the authority to make that decisoin by himself.

Man I must of missed something,they removed the rip rap? I wonder why they would've done that for.

 

I always bought bait from Todd's Sport Shop just north of the lake. Is that place not still there? When coming from Gander Mountain area on 235 just go past the lake less than a mile and their gas station / bait shop was always there. Hope it's still there because I plan on going to Kiser soon and was going to get my minnow there.

The guy in charge of the lake is more interested in making things nice for the horse people than the fisherman. Todds closed a little over a year ago so you better bring your bait with you.

 

Wonder why Todds closed. It was a good location and it was the only place close to get bait. It always seemed busy, plus they had food and snacks as well.

 

Man I can't believe Todd's closed! Well I guess I'll be stopping at Scotties on the way up then. I love the quietness of Kiser lake. When I take my small jon boat up there I swear I'm always the only boat on the water. Too bad they don't allow electric trolling motors!

 

I was told by family who lived in the area`that the lady who gave the lake to the state specified no motors - that this was before electric motor. No motors still since it is written in the agreement from the lady (long ago). Supposedly her family gets it back if they don't follow the agreement.
Either way, it is the reason you were alone. I quit using my jon boat because it seemed to always be windy. I have had great success and ease with my kayak though! Lots of nice deer to watch also.
