jtram Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Does anybody know of any access points on jenkins creek, or if there are any holdovers from jenkins creek resort before it shut down? Curious as to whether anybody ever fishes it or has in the past. Just thought it might hold a few 'bows. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 You mean that fancy expensive resort closed down? Didn't hear of that, but it wouldn't surprise me if it did. I think Denjac on here had some run ins with the creek or maybe it was his son. I think it was his son. Anyways, I dont know that much about it other than it was very expensive to go to the resort.

jtram Posted January 15, 2011 Author Share Posted January 15, 2011 I went dove hunting with a guy who guided for them opening day of dove season and he said they shut down. Can't find the website anymore either so must be the case, I always wanted to fish it for some fresh water but couldn't pay the cost of a new fly rod just to fish some private water. I have been ravaging the internet trying to find some access points and have only found one. May go try to do some scouting next week, who knows may be a gem.

denjac Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 My sons had to go to court for tresspassing on Jenkins. It was just down the road from the ole settlers picnic grounds I do believe. He will call the law. Do some asking before proceeding . Dennis Boothe Joplin Mo.

jtram Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Thats definately good to know denjac, I don't believe a court appearance would go over well with the wife ! May try to get ahold of someone in the immediate area to see about a little access. If i can I will post back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gbowsher Posted August 23, 2018 Members Share Posted August 23, 2018 Has anybody heard or learned anything else about this stream? I was scouring the internet trying to find someone talking about this and really can’t find anything. I think the place might be for sale. Could be a good time to try and get on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
