Groveport, Ohio. Fishing on the Canal, 1908.

Fishing on the Canal, 1908. Fishing was a popular pastime, with the basin at Lock 22 considered a good location for catching black bass, while other parts of the canal yielded bullheads, rock bass, sunfish and carp. In 1893, a small break in the canal bank temporarily drained a portion of the canal and Groveport boys "fished" by scooping stranded fish from the muck.
