2009 Outings

 November   14 - Dix River
9:30 AM
Private boat ramp on the Kentucky River below Highbridge


The Dix River is only accessible to the public by boat. So, for this outing, we will be encouraging all participants to bring their own watercraft. There will be a few motorized boats on hand to shuttle those who do not have their own boat, or have not secured a ride with someone else by the time we launch.
 

It is possible to paddle a canoe or kayak from the launch ramp to the dam, however it takes quite a bit longer and one must account for a couple extra hours of travel time if they choose to go that route. The water from the mouth of the Dix to the dam is primarily flat and easy to paddle, with one area that will likely require a short portage, but it is a scenic trip often traveled by paddling enthusiasts.  

 

Please let Gene Slusher know if you are planning to attend, so that we can attempt to ensure everyone has a way to get up the river to the areas we intend to fish. He can be reached at geneslusher@yahoo.com.

 

Directions:

From Lexington: Take Harrodsburg Road to Wilmore, veering left at the flashing light onto US 29 (there will be a gas station at the fork in the road where you turn). Stay on this road, passing by Asbury College and through the town of Wilmore until you see Highbridge in front of you (this will be a few miles outside of town). Make a sharp turn to the right onto Lock No. 7 Road , going down a steep hill onto a small windy road (if you go under the bridge, you have just missed the turn). BE CAREFUL on this road. At the bottom of the hill, do not follow the road left, instead go straight and pass through a set of dilapidated stone columns. Take the first left (about 50 feet from the columns) into a driveway and park in the grass after making the loop around the launch ramp.
