Bowstring River Bridge Access at Anchor Inn

[Indiana Mike]

Is the Bowstring River bridge on Hwy 4 near the Anchor Inn accessible for fishing? Is there an area for parking near the bridge? I will be in the area at the end of August and would like to spend a few hours doing some shore fishing. I've fished the river further north at Dora Lake but would like to try another spot.

Thanks for your reply.

Yes there is access to the Anchor Inn bridge with parking nearby. Good Luck!

Very few fish to be caught here and the resort owners at Anchor Inn have been known to shoot at people on the bridge!!!

Drive a little further and fish the shore under the bridge in Inger. Don't count on any trophies but your bobber will likely go down. There are pike and a mixed bag of panfish that hang out near that bridge. Plenty of parking close by too.

Thank's for all of the responses. I should have time to try both locations, that is, if I don't get shot at the Anchor Inn Bridge.

I'll post back with the results.

Regards!!
