Thread: Kayak Trip Report, I-65 Slough

Great trip except for the rods. Is the gate past arrow head landing? how long is the walk to the put in spot ? Thanks

Keep following the gravel road past Arrowhead until you reach the locked gate under I-65. It's a half mile down the gravel road to the slough. The road follows under the I-65 bridge between the North and South bound lanes.

I cracked a second rod (didn't know until I got home) where the two pieces go together. I tried a quick fix and messed up, now the two halves don't go together. Expensive trip!

dont trash the rods. I can JB weld them. We need to go back in a couple weeks before the water starts rising and when it cools off a little.

Glad I saw this. If I’d ever tried it I thought you went through the other gate past the bridges.

Thanks for the info. I have never fished that spot before. Need to get one of the electric bikes that they have at lowes and rig a way to pull the kayak. Only problem is it's $2000.00

It's a short walk with my kayak on the cart.

I wished I'd caught some 9 to 10 inch fish to eat, but any thump is better than a zero!

You can go that way if you come off North Bethel Road in Priceville and go straight across Upper River road

My bad I thought you was talking about the slough on the south side of the river (Grantlands Slough on the map or Suzy Hole as I know it) Sorry bout that
