Fishing The Elk

[J Fry]

Any recent fishing and floating reports for the Elk river? Was wanting to know where I could rent a canoe, and what the best way to fish this creek? Also, anywhere to camp? Thanks.

There are numerous places to rent canoes and camp in the summer, but it is somewhat more limited in the winter. I'm sure wacky worm would be glad to outfit you down at Hog Heaven. You can also probably camp there, Big Elk or Sugar Island. These places all have facilities. You can go upstream and do primitive camping on the Big Sugar at Owl's Nest, or possibly Camp Tilden or even Creekside - way up the creek. The water is high right now, and the best clear water fishing might be up Big Sugar. I would definitely recommend starting on Big or Little Sugar and floating into the Elk. It gives you some smaller water to fish with some great smallmouth numbers.
