    Re: Bank access to Green River in Mammoth Cave NP?

    Thank you all for your responses...now I know not to expect to be able to fish from the front flap of my tent!

    That section of Green makes an awesome canoe trip. You can rent canoes and find a camping spot along the river. You can then fish up and down from the canoe..

    Re: Bank access to Green River in Mammoth Cave NP?

    There is bank access at the far eastern edge of the park on the south side of the river. I forget the name of the access point but I have seen it across the river from the campsite at the end of the Big Woods trail.

    First creek lake dries up during periods of moderate drought. And is quite a hike from the trailhead up from Houchins Ferry.

    Also you can try around the other ferry.

    There are really no great bank fishing spots as the park is quite undeveloped. I have floated from Nolin's tailwaters to Houchins ferry on an overnight trip. We camped at second creek in the floodplain but didn't do any good fishing.

    I recommend a canoe or kayak trip to fish the rivers.
