Rev - I don't want to leave you out, but I've run out of squares on my 'what happens if I do this' grid!

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

As of right now, I'll be there as a non-boater.

Revtro

Me too.  My grid is totally screwed up.  ;D  Seriously tho, I'm booked up every Saturday for the next month.  Still, I like the stunt double idea.  I just need to find someone as ugly as me that can pull it off.  :P

I'll be there. 

Dan, you can count me as a nonboater, but, Ovid is small enough that I can also use my boat there if we need it. 
So much water.  So many lures.  So little time.

I voted Chippewa, but Ovid is fine with me too since it is much closer.

I'll be there as a boater. Will the night access road still be open or will we enter through the main entrance on Price Rd?

Chippewa might be fun, but lets save that for next year (after I do my 'West Side Blitz' this winter and get more members over there!!!!)

I think Ovid will get more people there overall and still make it not too bad a trip for anyone who has said they'd like to come.

I will have marked maps. Read cameraguy's article in the http://www.greatlakesbass.com/articles/ section of the web site. It's one of the best bass lakes with a ton of bass. It can have its bad days like any other lake.

I'll check on the entrance, but we'll probably be going in the main entrance. I'm thinking to not start until 8:30 to make sure it is easy for everyone to get in at the main entrance and not have to get up at 2 AM to make it.

There is a nice campground onsite (State Park - Sleepy Hollow) off of the main entrance - Price Road just past Shepardsville about 5 1/2 miles east of US-127/27 if anyone wants to get there the day before and test the waters.

It is a 400 acre, no wake lake with several islands and bays. It is a lowland reservior with main creek channel - the Little Maple River and some side ditches and creeks. Several old house foundations and small 'ponds' too. The main cover in the fall will be whatever shallow weed is left, and tons of timber along and in the creek channel.

I know this isn't the perfect choice for everyone, but it is a very peaceful lake. Lots of wildlife (watch for deer very carefully on the way in) and fun to fish. A lot more like what west-siders are used to fishing more of too so any who can make it should feel right at home.

I'll put up a 'electronic signup/full info form' this weekend.

I was out to Ovid on Sunday and the night fishing access is closed. I also managed to weed out about 30 lures that didn't catch fish. It will help in narrowing down my choices. Some days that lake is tough.

And some days it's one of the best largemouth bass lakes around. I'll get a link up to the online lake map and talk about some spots and techniques that should work over the weekend.
