Yes. Just use the gated access road/trail located next to Cherry Run to walk down to the stream.

That's Doc Lewis's property, I fish out of there, and stay there occasionally. He's a super nice guy, lots of people fish through his property. He appreciates when they come and ask permission to fish through. He owns both sides of cherry run, from the mouth up maybe 1/4 mile of cherry run road.

I've always thought that was just a no-go. How do I go about asking him to fish there? I've always wanted to check out that section just to check it out.

Actually. i had parked in the desiganted parking area. There was a small feeder creek next to where we parked. It looked inviting, so I fused up and ran into this sign. Was wondering if I could continue ot fish up or stop.

The sign indicates that the ground is posted, but it also has the names of the owners listed if you want to contact them to ask permission to access it.
Because someone else has permission doesn't mean that they can give you permission (nor should they do so).
@bikerfish -- print this thread and show it to your host the next time you stay there to see if he's okay with you and others giving permission to people he doesn't know (this is the type of behavior that gets land permanently posted for everyone); the owner of this property spent most of the spring and early summer cutting logs on his property and dragging them to the road edge to stop people from illegally parking on his land

I didn't give anyone permission! I simply said alot of people fish through his property, and he appreciates when they ask. I would never give permission for anyone to be on somebody elses land.
By "fishing through", I mean fishing penns from his land, which he does own considerable frontage, NOT fishing down cherry run through the middle of his property. THAT might not go over so well. He does have all of his land posted one way or another, you can see his signs up along cherry run road till his property runs out. I've stayed there when people have come up penns or down, and wondered up to the house to ask if fishing through was ok.
