Hello. Is South Bass Island walkable? We will be arriving on the south end via the Miller Ferry. Debating whether or not to just walk or to rent a golf cart for the day. My concern is the roads.

It's quite a hike to walk to all over the island. You will definitely get your exercise of you walk! I recommend a golf cart. The roads are good and car traffic is respectful of the carts on the roads. I have never felt un-safe and have been to the island several times. If you travel there during the week there is a much lighter crowd than going on the weekend.
Is there somewhere to rent fishing poles and to fish?

There is no tourist board for Put-in-Bay but there is a great Chamber of Commerce! I haven't seen any pole rentals but lots of people bring their own and fish off the State Park pier. …

Depends where you rent it. You can rent right at the ferry docks, at a premium. Or walk a minute or two and there are a half dozen more places you will find. Or call your lodging (home rental, condo, hotel) and ask them as most have carts on site for rent at the best rates. Have fun!
