Circleville, OH is a charming little town with a friendly community spirit and plenty of attractive buildings, peaceful parks, and welcoming mom-and-pop stores. With the glistening waters of the Scioto River running past and a few lovely nearby lakes, there are some terrific fishing spots in and around town. Here are four of the best of them. A.W. Marion State Park The residents of Circleville are fortunate to have a fantastic state park right beside town. The beautiful Hargus Lake in the center of the park offers many terrific spots to unfold your chair and cast your fishing line. The lake is well-stocked with bluegill, channel catfish, crappie, and largemouth bass: all the fish an avid angler could wish for. You can fish from one of the peaceful banks or take a boat out onto the lake to fish from the water. The park is very well-kept and full of other fun things to do, with plenty of benches, picnic tables, hiking trails, campsites, and attractive natural scenery. It's located at 7317 Warner-Huffer Road, Circleville, a few miles to the northeast of town. You can enjoy the short drive there in your brand-new 2024 Ford Mustang GT Premium. Use your Mustang's Voice-Activated Navigation with Pinch-to-Zoom Capability to effortlessly find the park and lake. Elmon Richards Scioto River Fishing Access On the western side of town, you can take advantage of the picturesque Scioto River at the Elmon Richards Scioto River Fishing Access. It's a lovely natural spot right on Circleville's doorstep, with a quiet stretch of riverbank to settle for some great fishing. In the river, you'll find all kinds of catch, including channel catfish, bullhead catfish, flathead catfish, smallmouth bass, and crappies. The area is nicely maintained and is rarely crowded. You're likely to enjoy total peace and quiet for a few hours as you fish, especially if you go there after dark. Find this nearby angling spot at J22R+9W. Canal Park - Pickaway County Park District A couple of miles further to the west brings you to this popular local park that has an abundance of fun things to do, including strolls beside the river, bird watching, hunting, trapping, and fishing. You're likely to see plenty of wildlife as you relax beside the water in this peaceful, historic park. You can find it at 23352 Canal Road. Kinnikinnick Wildlife Area A short drive to the south of town brings you to a secluded forested wildlife area that offers some excellent fishing on the river or creek. Here, you can fish for catfish, bluegill, crappies, and many other species. You're likely to see a variety of waterfowl flapping or paddling past, including mallards, swans, geese, and wood ducks. In this neck of the woods, attentive bird watchers might even catch sight of a bald eagle or two. You can find the wildlife area on Orr Road, U.S. Route 23, on the way to neighboring Chillicothe.

Known for its adventurous spirit, the 2023 Ford Explorer is an SUV that's ready for fun, thanks to its reliable engine performance and available off-roading capabilities. It's also perfect for both daily commutes and long-distance journeys, as it offers a spacious cabin that seats up to seven and plenty of tech features. 1. A 318-HP Hybrid Engine This edition of the Explorer provides three engine options to choose from, with up to 400 horsepower produced by the strongest, though the 3.3-liter hybrid V6 is the most unique in the group. Not only does this engine churn out 318 horses, more than enough to easily go the distance on highways or power your way through off-road trails, but it also lends the vehicle an impressive 27 mpg in combined city/highway mileage. 2. A Self-Parking System Maneuvering your way in and out of tight parking spaces can be stressful sometimes, which is why Active Park Assist 2.0 easily makes this list. This feature can simplify the process for you by parking the vehicle automatically after you've selected a parking spot by controlling engine torque, steering, and braking, and best of all, it can perform parallel and perpendicular maneuvers as well. 3. Full-Color Entertainment Among this edition's many impressive tech features, the SYNC infotainment system takes center stage. This system delivers turn-by-turn route instructions when you're lost, access to SiriusXM radio for podcasts and music, and hands-free calling when you need to reach out to family or friends, as well as your choice of how to control it between its full-color touchscreen display and voice recognition capabilities. 4. Unique Seating Options The Explorer's seats are praiseworthy as well, with both luxury and style prioritized in every unique option. In addition to both ventilated and heated seats in the front row and heated seats in the second row, you can opt for many stylish designs, like the City Silver accent stitching and ST logo found on the ST trim's seats and the Mesa/Norias-colored leather seats with Lasso-perforated inserts in King Ranch models. 5. Smart Collision Avoidance If you've ever found yourself approaching a stationary vehicle too quickly, Pre-Collision Assist was designed for this type of scenario, as it warns you when this is occurring, and if you don't respond by slowing down or changing lanes, Automatic Emergency Braking then activates to automatically slow your vehicle to prevent a collision. Impressive horsepower, excellent fuel-efficiency, a cozy cabin, and advanced safety systems are just the start of everything this versatile SUV has to offer. Come get a closer glimpse at Coughlin Ford of Circleville today.

Long known for its stunning off-road capabilities, the Ford Bronco has cemented its place as one of the most versatile SUVs ever built. The 2023 edition is no exception with its multiple engine options and four-wheel drive, though it takes things up a notch with even more off-road-tackling features, both hard and soft-top roof options, and sophisticated technology inside and out. Powerful Performance If you're looking for strong performance, you'll easily find it in this edition of the Bronco, as all three of its available engine options deliver impressive horsepower output. The strongest engine is a 3.0-liter that generates 400 horses, followed by a 330-horsepower 2.7-liter, both V6s. Even the smallest engine, a 2.3-liter 4-cylinder, has plenty of boost with 300 horsepower. In addition to a 4,500-pound towing capacity, this SUV also offers standard four-wheel drive, which is further enhanced by G.O.A.T. modes, a system that lets you optimize the vehicle's responsiveness and traction with the push of a button. Comforts and Style The 2023 Bronco's cabin is both luxurious and designed for convenience, with available features like the dual-zone climate control system, heated multi-adjustable leather trim seats, and removable floor drains with both rubberized flooring and moisture-resistant vinyl seating. The exterior of the vehicle is both rugged and stylish, with a slide-out tailgate that you can use as a step to easily climb in and out of the bed or as a durable work surface. Wheel sizes vary between 16 and 18 inches, and while the soft-top roof can be quickly retracted, opting for the hardtop option provides off-the-ground camping experiences if you'd like to pitch a tent on it. Technology and Safety While using the SYNC 4 infotainment system to listen to music or podcasts from either the available SiriusXM satellite radio channels or a wirelessly connected smartphone, you'll love how everything sounds with the premium B&O audio system, which delivers incredible clarity through 10 speakers. When you find yourself out on the trails, the 360-degree camera bundle will certainly come in handy, as it uses multiple cameras to provide immersive split-screen views of the area around you. This edition's safety features are also sophisticated, like the Blind Spot Information System (BLIS), which uses radar to detect and warn of vehicles hiding in your blind spot zones. As for slower or stopped vehicles in front of you, Pre-Collision Assist warns when they're present, just in case you don't see them. If you get too close to another vehicle, Automatic Emergency Braking will then try to prevent an impact by automatically providing braking support. Comfortable inside, rugged outside, and ready for just about any adventure you have in mind, the 2023 Bronco is as versatile as it is fun to drive. To experience it for yourself, reach out to us today at Coughlin Ford of Circleville to take it out for a spin.

When you're getting ready to purchase your new Ford, you may not think of getting financing directly through your dealership. However, your dealership is often the best choice for obtaining financing to purchase your vehicle. Here are four great reasons for getting your car financing directly from your Ford dealer. 1. It's a Lot More Convenient Getting financing at the same time and place as you purchase your vehicle just makes more sense. It saves you the time of traveling and/or phoning your bank branch and conveying information back and forth. All that extra time may even mean that you could lose out on your vehicle of choice. Your dealership is ready and willing to finance your vehicle and has the paperwork and information to get it all done fast and easily after you select your vehicle. 2. You're More Likely To Get a Loan Banks have a lot of guidelines and requirements around obtaining loans, and unless you have a great credit score, you may not meet them. Or even if you do meet their stringent terms, your bank may not be flexible on the interest rates, amount, or repayment terms, so you may be limited in the amount you can borrow and comfortably pay back. Your car dealership is committed to getting you into the car you want to purchase. Therefore, their financing department is more likely to extend a loan amount with more manageable terms, even if your credit isn't great. 3. You'll Get a Better Deal Unlike banks and large financial institutions that make their money off the interest on your loan, dealerships make their money by selling you a vehicle. This means that when it comes to negotiating interest rates and other payment terms, car dealerships are a lot more likely to be flexible so they can make the sale. Often this means they may not even require a down payment, and they'll likely offer you very low interest rates. 4. You May Get a Better Vehicle As we just mentioned, car dealerships make their money by selling you a vehicle, not on interest payments they receive. This means they may be willing to negotiate a higher loan amount or offer you more flexible repayment terms to help you purchase a larger or more expensive vehicle. At Coughlin Ford of Circleville, we aim to provide you with the best car-buying experience possible. Our award-winning team is ready to assist you in your vehicle selection, obtaining the financing you need, and maintaining your vehicle for many years to come. Call or visit Coughlin Ford of Circleville today to view our vast inventory or ask any questions.
