New to the board

[goosecreekguy]

Hey all, new to the board here. I love fishing, hunting, camping, and the great outdoors in general...and from what I've read most everyone here does, too.

First post and I'm already gonna ask a question...where are some good places in the lexington area to camp and/or fish? We are fairly new to the area and still trying to find some places to go.

Thanks, bobby.

Welcome aboard bobby. Lots of very nice and knowledgeable folks on here that always seem willing to help.

I second the red river gorge, but wait till the crazy bears leave. Also, fryman's boat dock in Paris (20 mins from lexington/winchester/mt sterling) has bank fishing, boat rentals, and creek-side camping that may be what you're looking for. If you're interested, PM me and I can give you some details.

Is the resevoir on richmond road public access?

Elkhorn in Frankfort has some good spots for smallmouth, I suggest checking out the Jim Beam factory and Switzer covered bridge. You can get to either of them in about 30 min from Lexington.

I can not help with the Lexington area but I will welcome you to the board.
