The boat ramp in Lake Macbride State Park will be closed Sept. 30 through Oct. 20 due to asphalt work on the parking lot.
Was surfing the DNR site today and ran across this. I hadn’t heard it before, so I thought I’d throw out a heads up.
Hey gianni, for a few bucks we can put in at mahaffeyes. One place im definitly going to work this fall is up by green castle in the holes, jigs and trolling. Im sure theres some decent current breaks up there to localize the fish for us. Maybe later on that one. I want to troll from the marina down to mcbride along the rock edges reading the contour all the way to mark fish. Later
I think Mehaffey is $2, but someone said that October they no longer charge. Hope that’s true, but I’m willing to part with a couple bucks if need be.
With the warm weather, not sure where to look for the fish. Hopefully they’ll help me out a little.
It’s been a while since I’ve been down that way what is the best way to get to mehaffey from the north I-380?
Heres how to get there. Go south on i-380 and get off on the north liberty exit and go into north liberty. If im thinking right you go straight into town and theres a sign that points to the left, mahaffey bridge and dock, turn left there and go to the reserviour. You can’t miss it, the ramp is on the right by the bridge. I know when you come in from 965 north you turn left by the y intersection. Go into town and make another left, go two blocks if my count is right, go left again and go twards the bridge.
Mehaffey ramp is open and no charge as I just used it and theres not even envelops to collect your $2. best way to get there from I-80 is thru North Liberty. At the stop light go straight(west) 3 blocks, can’t miss the big sign that says MacBride Reservoir and Mehaffey boat ramp. Turn left and go 21/2 to 3 miles at the most and the ramp is on the right hand side. Hope to be there Sunday but I do have to sell some homes at 2pm so have only half a day. Fished the rock ridges and trolled the flats last week and only pulled 1 small silver bass in. Hope its better than that!!
