Bois Brule campsite?

[ameyers41]

I'm planning on making my first trip up to the Bois Brule for some steelheading. The pics posted here so far have convinced me I'm missing out. Any suggestions on where to camp and also maybe a couple suggestions on where to access the river? Any help would be appreciated.

I suggest buying a map that is produced by the brule river sportsmans club, these can be found at local gas stations and bait shops and cost around 6 bucks. I don't know the names of most of the campgrounds, but the copper range campground is located right off of H and right on and near some very good steelheading water. I know there are some more really nice campgrounds up and down the river that you should also check out.

No need to buy it. Here's one you can print for free.

Take it to kinko's have them print it full size or enlarged, cut out the brule river portion and you're set.

I know you can download a free version, but the brule river sportsmans club version has all the holes, runs, and landings labled and can be a great help for someone who does not know the river that well yet. The money also goes to a great cause and i reccomend that anyone who is serious about learning different areas on the Brule should pick one up.

Thanks for all the info. Do either campsites within the forest have showers? I see toilets on the state map, but no further info...

Talked to the brule river classic fly shop, sounds like they have cabins.
