Kayak Fishing - Irwin Park To Curwensville VFW

Hello everyone! Lets catch some smallies!

The Route:

One of my favorite floats this time of year is floating from Irwin Park in Curwensville to the VFW. At Irwin Park there are multiple places to park and a kayak drop off site. When dropping off your kayak, you will have to drag them down over a hill, it's a bit tiring. Once your kayak is dropped off, you will travel down the road and there is a little park bench and a pull off spot across from the VFW. I believe 2-3 trucks can fit there. The nice thing about this float is that you really only need one vehicle. If you drop the kayaks off, and have the driver walk back up the road it takes about 20 minutes. If you run it's about 10. But it is complete manageable if you are in shape. The float takes approximately 2-2 1/2 hours to finish if you are fishing. 

On The River: 

Once you have secured your kayaks and all your things and you are ready to go you will notice there are "little islands" going down the river. These are what is left over from an old railroad bridge. They are great structure to hit as you continue down the river. Once they stop, I recommend fishing the banks. Both sides are great fishing. 

You will also notice as you approach about halfway there are campers all along the left-hand side, this is the Curwensville Moose campground. If you're feeling froggy, once you approach the back of the Moose there is area there to pull off in your kayaks. You will see long steps that go up to a pavilion and you are at the Moose.
