Thanks AJ for the reply. Creeks should be active and staying that way for awhile. Side Note: Rainfall Update. My back yard gauge showed a total of 2.15" of rain. Got an additional 1.10" from a second storm that rolled through after I emptied my gauge. Looks like a wet weekend ahead.

Very nice! Are the skeeters and chiggers out down where you are?
Last time I went in to heavy vegetation like that, I got tore up. Even with Ultrathon applied.

Thanks MulGogiHunter for the reply! I spray some off around my head and on my pants. I also put some on my arms and spray around both pants legs. It works very good. Have no problems with the skeeters or other insects. You really need to watch out for the fire ant beds,spiders,and snakes,not to mentions slippery banks,and holes. Side Note: I have been lucky throughout the years and have had very few problems fishing the creek beds. I love fishing creeks this time of year.

Great pictures and post as always, Chuck. Thanks for sharing.
That water looks really shallow.

Thanks Jamie for the reply. That was the shallow part of the creek. There are a couple of deep pockets throughout the creek.

Nice post Chuck. Fished a creek last week with the fly rod and did pretty good. Caught a lot of Redbreast and Hybrid sunfish. All fat and in the 7 to 8 inch range. Creek was in great shape. Side Note: Picked up two Rios also. What is your take on the creek Rio bite for this year?

Thanks Curtis for the reply. Right now I have been catching more fish in the creeks than anywhere else. All the river lakes are taking on a lot of water from Canyon Lake and have strong currents. The water is also cold. Fishing for sunnies on the Guadalupe so far has been a little slow. Creek fishing on the other hand has been pretty good. Getting good quality fish in good numbers. As for the Rio bite on the creeks I have caught a few but nothing big. It should be getting better as we approach the summer months.

Thanks Chuck. Mcqueeney and Placid has slowed down a lot since the Canyon Lake water let out. Still getting pretty good numbers of Crappie further east! Current is not so bad. Did not make it out this weekend because to the the river lakes being a muddy mess. Looks like a dry spell will be around this week. Will try getting out mid week.
Side Note: Have not put much time on the creeks yet!

Fishing the creeks and ponds a lot! Getting some super fish off both. Fished Dunlap yesterday and it was slow. Water is clearing up but the current is still very strong. Did not fish it long. Also thanks for the updates on Mcqueeney and Placid. Managed to fish Mcqueeney also this week and it was slow. Strong currents as well.

Just when the currents will slow down the WAKE BOATERS will be out in force. Far East side you do not have the recreational boaters.

Thanks Gitter for the reply! Looks like creek fishing is going to be slowing down for about a week or two. I picked up just under 3" of rain last night with more on the way.
