Hello, I haven't fished anywhere but farm ponds and want to fish some new places I can use my boat. Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations around Richmond Indiana (40 mile radius)?

Brookville is just south of you. Great place if you have a boat. Also White Water State Park it is trolling motors only

Fishing has-been slow for about 2 weeks Starting to pick up as nights cool off. If you have a boat hit Whitewater or Middlefork. Later in September Summit and Prarie Creek. Two trips to Whitewater this week netted about 20 Crappie and 2 small bass.

Summit Lake, Summit Lake State Park. Good ramp, plenty of parking, idle speed only

Summit has-been a good Bass lake in the spring. Looking forward to trying fall fishing for Walleye.

Good morning, I just saw your post, have you checked out Brookville lake, it is south of you but a nice place to do some good fishing, we used to go down there alot. Great crappie fishing in the spring. Lots of cover and underwear structure for different fish. It's a big lake and I have not been there for quite a long time, it will take you some time to learn lake, great place for a boat...

Fished it for 25 yrs
I think I have caught almost every type of fish in that lake except Muskie. Great spring and fall lake but summer is too much fiberglass floating around.

Middle fork resv or Brookville resv are in your backyard. Though I don’t know about either. We are near Indy and new here and still learning too.

You can try Brookville Lake 20 miles south of you. Summit State Park 40 miles just a little north and east of New Castle and Prairie Creek Park south of Muncie and just north of Summit State Park.
