Another question about local Louisville Lakes

[walkeraviator]

Next to Evangel Church is a large body of water and a smaller one. Has anyone checked to see if teh church will allow fishing in it, or if it is even stocked?

The church allows fishing but you have to stop in the office and get a permit. Another cavaet to fishing is they don't allow fishing on Thursdays and Sundays. As far as the fish go you can catch a fair number of smaller bass and I know there are bluegills in the lake but the several times I have fished it I am not impressed with the size nor numbers. I did catch a 8 or 9 inch bluegill once on a rapala but I have never caught a bass over 14". I am sure there are some good fish in the lake but it gets a lot of traffic and the water is pretty clear so any better sized fish are conditioned...

excellent information... thanks. I was actually liking teh lake because it has few trees around it and would give me a good place to try out my fly fishing stuff when i get it... so small bass and bluegill would be ok while i learn the new stuff...

I have always wondered about that as well. Looks pretty good and fishy.

You might also be interested in the Jefferson County Sportsman's Club. They have a really nice lake and I've seen some monster bass come out of it. I was a member for two years, but didn't go out there enough to justify my membership. I think it's $10 a month, or at least that what it was when I was a member. They also have a trap range and archery ranges. Pretty fun place!

These lakes have just about everything in them seen large cats and large bass. Some people like to discourage others from fishing.
