Norway is still very fishable from shore. You can park inside the NIPSCO gates or you can park at the public access site and walk the trail back under the bridge. I have only caught a couple quality fish below the Norway Dam. If you want quantity and quality fish I would fish below the Oakdale Dam. A friend and I went there about 4 times a week when I was still in school at Purdue. We always caught a bucket full of fish whether it was walleye, crappie, bluegill, wipers, white bass, LM and SM, channels, and some big flatheads, and of course big carp and buffalo. So there is always something biting there, the key to fishing below the Oakdale dam is to not be afraid of getting wet. We always waded out to the middle and set up on one of the big boulders.
