Summer On The Current?

[XP 590]

I'm new to the Current and only fished March and April this year, upper Blue Ribbon Area. I'm curious how busy that area is in the summer. It looks like you can't really float from the park to Tan Vat, is that right? What about Tan Vat down? Can they put in canoes at Tan Vat? Baptist? Parker? I'm afraid I'm not going to like the answers but the time I have available to fish is pretty limited so give it to me straight.

Thanks-Dave

Can't float until Tan Vat. No canoe rental outfitters will but in at Tan Vat. One of them, Jadwin, will take rentals to Baptist. It can be busy mid-day from Baptist down on the weekends, but nothing like further down (Cedar on). You can put your own personal canoes in at any of those mentioned access points.

You cant launch a boat in the park, but private boats can and do launch at Tan Vat occasionally. The canoe rentals put folks in at Baptist, and Cedargrove, but not at Parker, Parker is the usual takeout for private boaters running their own shuttle because its such a short drive back to Baptist and its also popular with the horse people and local partiers. Park down to about a mile below Baptist is usually pretty crowded with wade fisherman on the weekends...Fish it Sunday PM through Thursday if you dont like a crowd. Cheers.
