The road from highway 89 is closed. There is a gate about an 1/8 of a mile up. I did not want to try the dirt road, as it did not look too dirty. It was a muddy mess.

Good luck on your next fishing adventure. If you have a question. a report in our local fishing area or have a photo of your catch, send it to [email protected]. Hope to see you on the waters. Good fishin' and tight lines.
