    Lake Erie question

    Does Lake Erie/ presque isle bay have a closed period?
    Thinking about heading up there in mid May.

    Thanks!

    If I wasn't lost, I'd surely know where I was going!

    I was up there last May and will be up there again this May. It gets busy but not ridiculous compared to Guntersville or Chickamauga. It can get rough so be ready to either pack it in or just not go. On those days, I usually head to Chautauqua or Kinzua.

    Well I certainly don’t know Erie like you guys so I’ll just bounce around and see what I can find.

    If I wasn't lost, I'd surely know where I was going!
