After that come Piketon at 10 miles and Rosemount at 10 miles. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Lake Frasure

  There is no published depth for this one, so start shallow and work out. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Reported across Scioto County: bluegill, longear sunfish and rainbow darter. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. On Lake Frasure the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 74°F and January reads 29°F. The year gives four workable seasons without severe ends. Some winters give nothing at all, so plan for open water. Late winter often fishes better here than midsummer does. Lake Frasure fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. Public data records a boat ramp half a mile out. The nearest car park is half a mile from the water. Fishing from a pier is possible half a mile away. You can camp 110 yards off, which suits an early start. Some banks are open only from a marked point. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Lake Margaret, 5.5 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Check the position at Lake Frasure before loading the car.
