Ihave two "choise" spots but they will require a boat if you can get one .
On foote site pond (downriver from Alcona pond closer to Oscoda) there is an island you can camp on , best part is only fishermen and canoers camp on this island .
Closer to home there is another island , it is on the far southeast side of grosse isle, (not the island to the south and west , that is a no tresspassing island !!!!) Get a map before you go ,one of those islands to the east is Canada's, just throwing anchor in there waters is enough to get you arrested.
For practice , Bellville lake has pretty good bullhead fishing , lake erie metro park has a few spots , sterling state , but only in the ponds . There is a bridge with a D.N.R. launch in or just before you get to point mouley , good spot too .
Too bad that since 9-11 most of the prime spots were shut down .Banana island(the tubes) is shut down after dusk , and the erie powerplant has a big ol' population of blues .
