Hi Moldman, If you want some good Ohio perch fishing I would suggest fishing out of Conneaut Harbor. I've fished perch off of Ashtabula, Geneva and Conneaut. Conneaut always seems like the go to place when Geneva and Ashtabula fishing isn't good. I'm not sure about where to camp at around Conneaut and I know dockage is at a premium there. Ashtabula does have plenty of dockage and several campsites nearby to choose from. I would suggest a late August early September date for a chance at some good fishing. Always remember that if you do stay in Ashtabula if you want to fish off of Conneaut or Geneva is just a short boat ride away. Hope this info helps and good fishing to you.
