Let’s meet at Riverbank Kayak in Connersville, Indiana at 8 a.m. on Saturday, July 25th.

Parking is available.

Curtis (Riverbank Kayak) needs a headcount for the shuttle so get your spot reserved on our website.

You can rent a kayak there as well if you don’t have one.  $30 for a sit in, non-fishing kayak.

Shuttle provided with/without your own kayak. $5 fee for river access on your own Kayak. $10 pickup fee at 3 mile for your own kayak. These fees are included in the kayak rental from them.

Please let us know by signing up on the NKFF website.

Also, if you are already signed up and cannot make it, please let us know.

The float will be a few miles, plenty of places to stop/slow down to fish along the way.  Curtis and staff will shuttle cars down (for those with their own kayak) and also shuttle anyone back to pick up your car (for those who wish to rent).

Phillip Bateman will be onsite.  His number is listed above as well.
Bruce Lane will also be onsite.

I am available for questions at number above.

Please don’t hesitate to text/call if you have questions!

Forecast for the river level on Saturday is 2.7 ft.  It will be at 4.7 Wednesday after rain on Tuesday but is forecast to drop and hopefully, the rise and drop doesn’t disturb the fish too much.

Don’t forget to bring your fishing gear.  Be prepared for weather, rain jacket, packed lunch, sun block, Indiana license (1-day available on line with IN DNR).

Standard 5-7 wt rods for this area (6-7 is good for smallies).  I recommend minnow patterns and poppers for the early a.m. topwater.

Riverbank Kayak site is on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092114204060 or search for Riverbank Kayak on Google.

Sorry I cannot make it but my wife’s health is important right now so I need to be nearby.  However, I am available for texts/calls prior to the outing.  My number is above.
Tight Lines!
Phillip and Jack

  1. Anybody renting kayaks from Riverbank Kayaks? Wanted to give the owner Curtis a heads up plus a confirmation of total people in our group that will be going.
