We have about a hundred feet of creek acreage and five acres of land. You’ll be able to access the river from the road to the property, but as it is a co-op of private landowners, we simply ask that you respect any private property signage. I’ll be around to answer any questions you may have about where to explore.The fishing is phenomenal here, especially if you like fly fishing or creek fishing. There are largemouth bass, several perch species, and catfish in this river and its creeks. It’s one of my favorite places to fish, and I come here every weekend that I can.
