Thread: Patoka info?

went to a tournement at Monroe one time and saw them turn away a boat that had no launch permit on it. You diffinately need the IN permit

Yep...if your out of state,,ya gots to have the launch permits..and they are darned hard to find a place that sells them in late fall and early spring when all the state parks and state dnr's cut back on being open especially on a Sunday. Most offices are closed on weekends in early spring and late fall and winter. I was at a BMV one time, on a Sat. morning getting plates,,and a couple of guys towing a bass boat, pulled up from ILL. and were looking for launch permits for wanting to fish Patoka and SOL on finding them on a weekend early spring last yr. Fine for not having them is about 150 bucks too.

If your from out of state,,and have the time to have them mailed to you,,here is website to mail order them but they charge 4 bucks I think mailing fee for the launch permits.
