    Lake Logan is touted as one of the best fishing lakes in the entire state of Ohio! But this hidden gem in Southeastern Ohio offers more than just fishing! There are plenty of outdoor daytime activities that can be enjoyed here. 

    A little history, Lake Logan was developed back in 1955 for recreational purposes. It was originally known as Hocking Lake.
