About This Access Site
**Location & Access:** Hurshtown Reservoir's public boat ramp is located off Roth Road along the north-south shoreline in Grabill, Allen County, Indiana. Look for the circular drive along Roth Road to find the launch area. This is Allen County's largest body of water, situated on elevated terrain that creates favorable wind conditions.

**Boating & Paddling:** The reservoir accommodates a variety of watercraft, including kayaks, canoes, rowboats, and motorized vessels. A public boat ramp is available for launching private watercraft. The elevated location and open water make it suitable for paddling, though wind conditions can be quite strong, making it popular for sailing and windsurfing. Canoe rentals are available on an hourly or daily basis if you don't have your own vessel.

**Fishing & Recreation:** Hurshtown Reservoir is a popular fishing destination stocked with walleye, crappie, smallmouth bass, bluegill, channel catfish, and rock bass. Beyond fishing and paddling, the scenic countryside setting offers a peaceful atmosphere for a day on the water or relaxing on the banks.
