Pelee Island
Pelee Island is a small, flat island, however, it is the largest island in Lake Erie covering about 16 square miles. This island is used primarily for agriculture, although, it does have a small population of permanent residents. The population increases during the summer and is a popular place to visit due to the ferry service that runs between Pelee Island and Sandusky, Ohio. Fishing is very popular around the island. It is a very good offshore fishing spot during the summer and fall months on Lake Erie. Smallmouth bass are found in good numbers and big fish in the 4 to 5 pound range are common. Huge walleye patrol the deeper waters out away from the island and when the schools of perch are around, you can catch a mess of them in a hurry.
