I have had a coworker tell me twice that he puts his boat in a Burkesville when he fishes Cumberland river for trout, but he can never remember the name of the road that the boat ramp is on. Do any of you know where it is?

He also said that the water fluctuates less in that area, and it still holds large fish. Do any of you have any information about that area? He has since retired, or I would ask him myself.

I'm planning a trip in the next couple weeks, and I wondered if I should give this place a try, or just stick with launching at the dam and doing the usual 3-4 mile drift down.

If I do put in at Burkesville, should I drift down and fish, or run up river and float back down?

Thanks for any info you can give!
