Harrod's Creek Louisville

[publican57]

Im guessing you yakked the lower portion of the creek near Captains Quarters. You are right, however in the spots Ive mentioned the OP can wade pretty much down stream to the Hunting Creek Neighborhood.

Actually when I was younger I would have my friend park his car in Hunting Creek and we drive back up to 1694 (sleepy hollow past Glenn Oaks)in my car and wade the whole way down. It would take us 6 hours or so.

Lots of smallmouth, largemouth, spots, sauger, drum, white bass and catfish can be found there. Not to mention all of the deer, turkey and other wildlife.

Oh yeah, only two baits needed, pumpkinseed color tube and a rootbeer/chart bandit crank. Weve probably caught a thousand bass on those two lures in that creek over the years. Good times for sure.

Maybe I need to hook up with you guys sometime so I may have a place to put in at the upper creek. You are right; I have only kayaked the lower part. To get were you are talking where I put in would probably take all day paddling. That's no fun

thanks everyone, this is great info...
i have fished Flloyd's Fork a few times... did great the first couple of days... small mouth, rock bass etc. even caught a 6lb. drum on a 5 weight fly rod, that took awhile to get in...
the next time i tried there were at least 15 cars and many more fishermen in in the same spot, seemed that way up and down... it was like fishing in a WalMart parking lot... i'll try some different spots...
fished Harrods creek this morning, beautiful area, did rather well considering the heat, unfortunately i broke the tip on my Sage fly rod so it turned into an expensive adventure...
i appreciate the posts, has anyone fished the Western Kentucky river?

i broke the tip on my Sage fly rod so it turned into an expensive adventure...

Sage will replace the broken section for about $50. Go to their website and follow their instructions. Better than the whole rod for $600.

Wow! Now the information is out for the whole world to see. Hope there's room for all those people that are gonna flock to that place just because someone mentioned it. Really is that such a big deal? Thanks for the info PHdryfly.

I guess 15deep ain't enough on a watershed that drains about 150 square miles. My bad I'll shut up now.....
