Decent population.  You can if you know where the holes are or have the ability to find them.  Fishing at night helps.

Great for canoeing, plenty of areas for wading.  I have a camp on French Creek below Utica.

Not certain why "some people" call the Franklin area the hillbilly zone but I'd consider the source.

Sorry, I should have checked.  Now Utica, where my camp is located, there are some real interesting people there.

Status: offline 		Try fishing a place called Bare ass beach or the county farm eddy west of Sugar Creek(the village). Go out "takeiteasy" road (a real place). It has deep slow water for eyes and pike. Best on rainy days with jointed rapalas.
