Miller Ferries to Put-in-Bay
Season Start up Wednesday, March 17, 2010
Put-in-Bay, Ohio......
To the delight of most residents of the Bass Islands in Lake Erie, the winter proved to be an unusually long ice fishing season which began in January and ended last week. For several weeks in February, the ice trail was stable which allowed islanders to visit the neighboring islands of Middle Bass and North Bass Islands. But, a few days ago, gusty northeast winds quickly broke up the several inches of ice off the west side and in the harbor of the Put-in-Bay, making way for the path for the Miller Ferries.
