To reach Reynolds Road, head east on paved Sturgeon Valley Road from the Sturgeon Bridge and within 1.6 miles turn north (left) on Hare Road. Hare Road is not signposted but it’s the first dirt road beyond the stream. Follow Hare Road for half a mile and then turn west (left) on Reynolds Road, which is posted with a “Fisherman’s Access Road” sign. Reynolds Road ends in 0.7 miles at a parking area capable of holding six to eight vehicles.

From the parking area, a distinct foot trail heads steeply down a bluff and in less than a quarter mile breaks out at a grassy opening overlooking a bend in the Sturgeon. At the bend the river is 40 to 50 feet wide, two to four feet deep, and holds a sand trap that needs to be avoided.

Both upstream and downstream the Sturgeon narrows to 35 feet and features lots of sweepers, sunken logs, and overhanging cedars that need to be avoided when casting. But the structure provides excellent cover for trout.

A faint foot trail can be followed downstream and according to older maps it extends to Pickerel Creek. But this trail is difficult to follow at times.
