It would be a good idea to have a job lined up before you get here. Its tough to find anything higher than minimum wage unless you have some special skills, or unless you've got a comittment from an employer.

The local paper is the Erie Times-News. You should be able to get the classifieds online. They should give you a pretty good idea of rental costs.
And yes, the fishing around here is great.

The best walleye, perch, and bass fishing is from boats. Great steelhead fishing is right on the Lake Erie tributaries. Large carp are available in the lake shallows. If you want to travel a little, there's a lot of trout fishing in the area. Something here for everyone.
