    Question 3 mile slough near New Johnsonville

    Question for you guys that fish the New Johnsonville area. Can you access 3 mile slough from the river? Maybe just north of the 70 bridge? Trying to see if I can get in there, launching at New Johnsonville ramp. Thanks for any info.

    Oh yeah. You can get over there at winter pool if you take the right route. We are gonna be over summer pool so you shouldnt have any problem.

    3 mile slough is inside the camden bottoms wma inpoundment the only way u can access it from the river is when the river floods and goes over the levey. Or are you talking about getting from the river channel through the islands over to the west bank?

    I thought he was talking about the area between cypress creek/beaver dam and the main river channel. We need about 10 feet more of water to get into the bottoms haha

    was wondering where the "slough" was
    Pretty sure you would need to launch off of 70 somewhere, not from KY Lake/TN river

    Thx for the reply'. I was trying to access it from the river, looks like on google maps that I cannot. Another question, any grass at all? Unfortunately, I think I know the answer.
