Brush Creek and Versailles

[idbefishing]

does it cost anything to launch and where do we get a schedule?

"Rumor control" said the Navy would have a posting at the ramp of its traninng days,(that was the story 6 Mo. ago) I haven't been on the lake for three years now because of the low water level. So I don't know if that is a true fact.

The ramp is free,,, nice parking lot,,, out house on the hill if nature calls. Don't hold me to it, but I think DNR from the Crosley fishing and game area take care of the property.

"If" the water level is back to normal it should be gang busters this month and next. The State record bass was caught in Brushcreek back in the 1960's The man who caught the bass was named Buck Horton.

In North Vernon a bar named "Millers Tavern" has the bass mounted and the Indy. Star story on the wall.

I have not fished Brush Creek in several years. It used to be loaded with small crappie but I heard that it also had some huge ones in it. Might have to give it a try this spring. Anyone know if you can still launch and bass boat from it.

You're right about the bgi fish.One of the last times we fished the lake we had 6 fish that weighed 28lbs. granted that was the only time we had a bag like that but we have'nt been there in years.
Thats what this post is about whether the lake level is high enough to launch...and yes a schedule of when the lake is off limits would really be helpful.I live too far from there to ride out and check.
