OK - I'll bite. Based on the number of non-resident fishermen who come to Lake Erie to fish the May bass bite I would suggest Dunkirk. This is also a good destination if Lake Erie kicks up and blows as you have the protected waters of the harbor to fish. While there may be less expensive places to stay within a couple of miles of the Dunkirk Boat Launch, the Clarion is within a 1/4 mile from the launch. There a quite a few of out of staters that do camp at Lake Erie State Park which is about 8 miles west of Dunkirk. The park has tent sites and cabins available for rent and that will also give you the option to fish out of Barcelona which is about 10 miles west of the State Park.
