Starting to plan a trip, looking for recommendations, for both a guide and lodging. On the lake? Near the lake?
At the moment, the guide will be for a half day, for three people. For crappie.
Gonna bring a boat and do some fishing also.
Thanks in advance
Lake shelbyville, il. Sorry
We've stayed several times at Whitetail Crossing Cabins. Nice place and basically mid lake. We normally launch at Lone Point. As far as a guide...hard to beat Birdman!
X2 for birdman.
theysaidBirdman without a doubt! Also might want to check out Coon Creek Lodge. I believe you may
be able to launch out of the Coon Creek Access area. Another place you may wish to check out is
Gregory's Resort. They have both a motel and cabins. Also close by to Lithia Springs for launching.
coon creek lodge to stay, a lot of crappie fisherman in the campground that it is located at. when are you coming
I stayed at coon Creek this year. Nice and clean.
Buoy's By The Lake Cabin for Rent 1/8 mile from Finley Marina. 217-756-8882 clean and location good between ramps. During the spring.
the people that own coon creek are crappie.com members
You may have a difficult time booking a guide for a half day. I know some offer four hour trips, but not all.
Thanks to all for the replies. Some contacts have been made.
Question - on the Illinois page for this thread, their is an envelope with a what looks like a do not enter sign on it, what is that for?
Lithia Fishing Guide - Lake Shelbyville, IL - Home give Ken a call. I've spoken to quite a few fishermen that have hired him and all were very satisfied. Enjoy your trip
Means one delete post... on this thread
I like to stay at Gregory's on the south end of the lake. Just a few hundred yards from the boat ramp. Gregory’s Resort Motel & Cabins – Rentals on Lake Shelbyville
Yea me! Someone else took over the planning duties!! I've sent them a link to this page.
AGAIN: thanks to all for your input!
Stayed at Gregory's. Nice clean cabins. They've got bait as well.
