today i read that OHIO HAS NO NATURAL LAKES…they are all man made in the state. is that accurate? if so, its pretty amazing. i figured that there has to be an oxbow somewhere along one of the rivers.

I dont know about Ohio but Texas only has one. Caddo is the only natural lake in the entire state

Im not an “Ohioan” or more aptly put, a Buckeye. But I lived in Indiana right near the Ohio/Indiana state line most all of my life until a couple of years ago. There are no natural lakes I know of in Ohio. Might be a few small ones somewhere, but nothing I ever heard of. Fishing pretty much sucks in Ohio, with the exception of Lake Erie of course…guess youd say its a natural lake.

There are 110 natural lakes in Ohio larger than five acres, covering a total surface area of 4,658 acres. These lakes occur in 21 of Ohios 88 counties.The vast majority of Ohios natural lakes formed in the aftermath of the most recent ice age. A few are post-glacial in origin, created from cutoff stream oxbows. this info was obtained from a 1991 report by ODNR
