SUMMARY:Spring 2026 Bardstown Bluegill Trip
DESCRIPTION:Coordinator: Steve Cullen S.Cullen325i@gmail.com ; 502-599-7494 \nThe Plan:  This will be the club’s second trip here thanks to the generosity of DCFF\nmember Lou Kaufman who has graciously offered us access to the venue.\nThis trip will be limited to 8 participants due to space constraints on the water.\nThe registration fee is $25 to cover dinner and breakfast as well as firewood.\nWe will be fishing two private lakes near to the area around Bardstown Kentucky\, about\n40 minutes South of Louisville.\nThese are small lakes with limited launch opportunity so we will be limiting this to\nKayaks and Canoes only. Wade or bank fishing isn’t really an option other than one pier\non the larger of the two lakes.\nWe will be fishing for Bluegill and Bass. We don’t plan on any fish fry’s but anglers may\nkeep some of their catch. No limit on Bass\, 10 Bluegill each.\nWe may arrive any time on the afternoon on the 20th and may fish if you like after\nchecking in and getting a little orientation. Supper followed by a fire at the cottage that\nevening. Group Breakfast the morning of the 21st\, after which you may fish either lake for\nas long as you like. \nLodging:  Lou has a cottage on the property which he has also made available to us.\nThere’s a large open room room as well as a three season room with plenty of space for\ncots or air mattresses and sleeping bags.\nWe have a kitchen and bath. We must bring our own towels\, cookware\, camp chairs\,\nand eating utensils.\nYou will need to bring your own cot or air mattress\, sleeping bag or linens and blankets\nand a pillow.\nThere are ample electrical outlets\, but you might want to bring a short extension cord\nand/or power strip to handle your electronic needs.\nWe’ll buy firewood for the group fires.\nWe have space to set up popup shelters/canopies if you choose to bring them but we\nhave no plans to bring the clubs.\nWhile we intend to leave the cottage open all day for bathroom access\, we would\nappreciate it if your gear was packed up and out of the cottage after breakfast. \nParking adjacent to the cottage should be ample but…  Carpooling would be a good\nidea if feasible.\nWe will be able to drop boats lake side. The property is gated and generally secure but\nyour gear is left at your own risk so please plan accordingly. \nMeals:\nPlan to bring your own lunch\, snacks\, and beverages of choice.\nI will bring the DCFF coffee pot\, coffee and condiments for the group.\nWe plan to have group supper the evening of the 20th and breakfast the morning of the\n21st. Both of those meals are open for a volunteer preparer. (You’ll have help and\nyour offers are greatly appreciated!)\nWe’ll tentatively plan suppers at 7PM but will adjust as needed.\nYou need to bring your cooking and meal prep/serving utensils – if you think you’ll need\nit\, bring it! We will have paper plates and plastic ware. \nDescription:  These are small impoundments with a varied shore line.\nDepths can be up to 14 feet\, but most areas are significantly shallower. There are a\nvariety of Bass\, as well as Red Ear and Bluegill in these lakes.\nAccessibility:  Access to the larger of the two lakes is firm and relatively shallow in\nslope meaning trailer launch is difficult if not unlikely. Plan on walking your boats in. That\nwill definitely be the case on the smaller lake where launch is limited to a walk in at the\nend of the dam.  Gas motors cannot be used but trolling motors are acceptable.\nLevel:  This is a Level 2 trip.  There will not be dedicated fishers to teach beginners fly\nfishing basics.\nFishing License and Permits: This is private property and fishing licenses are not\nrequired.\nEquipment:  3 to 6 weight fly rods\, but if you want to spin or bait fish don’t hesitate to\nbring your gear.  Both topwater and typical nymph flies should work.  Bluegills love mop\nflies and trout magnets! While I can’t say what things will be like in October\, the top\nwater bite was good in June though nymphing in deeper water was also productive. \nTo sign up and pay\, please click here.
