About This Access Site
Wilbur Wright Fish & Wildlife Area in Lebanon offers access to Boones Pond for fishing and paddling. This 1,070-acre Indiana DNR property features river valleys and floodplain habitat managed for wildlife and fishing opportunities. The area is popular with anglers targeting largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, and catfish, and provides shoreline fishing access as well as water-based recreation.

**Important Note:** While this site is listed as a boat ramp location, web sources indicate that a functional boat ramp may actually be located at the nearby Province Pond Wetland Conservation Area instead. Before visiting, contact the Indiana DNR Division of Fish & Wildlife or verify current ramp conditions, as primary access may be limited to shoreline fishing at Wilbur Wright itself. Check for any seasonal closures, parking availability, or access restrictions before planning your trip.
