Join us April 7 along the Sugar River – Sarbacher Easement. No prior experience needed and you may well learn about some nice stretches of water in which to drift a fly.
When: Saturday, April 7, 9 a.m. to 12 noon (Chapter Approved Sawyers please arrive at 8:30).
Where: The Sarbacher Easement is located just 1/3 mile north of Paoli on Range Trail at the bridge crossing. Here is a map to this location. The map shows a fire number for this location, but please disregard as there is no fire number.
What: Extensive clearing of brush and box elders. We will be working on the south side of the river, starting at the bridge, going downstream toward Paoli. The goal is to clear a path along the edge of the ag field and creating access paths to the river at different points along this path and then opening up the river making it more fishable.
We will be creating burn piles with the slash and some of the slash will used to make brush bundles at a later workday.
Bring: Bring work gloves, sturdy shoes, and eye and ear protection. – Also loppers and hand saws; otherwise the chapter has equipment you can use. Also bring reusable water bottles that can be re-filled from our 5-gal water jug.
Parking: Park on Range Trail on the east side of the road. There is not much room to pull off to the side of the road, so it is important that everyone parks on the east side, keeping the road open for traffic.
You are also entered into a drawing for a wonderful handcrafted “Streamkeeper” rod that is drawn at the end of the year.
Mark your calendar for this spring’s other stream workdays:
- April 21 – Smith-Conley (south of Ridgeway)
- May 12 – Fyres Feeder – Donald Park
