There are 2 places to launch in Cropwell Creek area, they are Lakeside Landing and Town & Country Food Mart (BP station). The water is over 5 feet low now so you need to be very carefull launching anywhere. As far as fishing you should be able to catch a limit without ever leaving Cropwell. If you wanted to go somewhere else there are lots of other good places. The creek where Coosa Island Marina & Rabbit Branch is would be another good choice. I would not recommend launching down there with the water this low. Hope you have a great trip but PLEASE leave a few for me.
