Fished 2 small N Dallas creeks in the afternoon with Arthur. Both were in good shape from the rain and not much staining. It started slow, but picked up as the day went on. Caught a bunch of Longears, 5 Greens, 3 BG's and a LM. Was able to do a lot of sight fishing which I like. Nothing huge, but some respectable fish in small water. Still searching for a Warmouth this year, they use to be pretty easy to find Two of my holes got blown up because a frisbee landed in them by "recreational athletes" who would then go in the creek to get it . Insult to injury if you ask me. Can't say "it felt great to be away from it all" because people were everywhere but it was nice to be fishing. Jogger thought I was crazy to fish there Longear Longear 9" King of the Hole I like this picture Arthur being awesome

Nice post Andrew! Love that urban creek fishing! With the good rainfall the creeks are in pretty good shape with plenty of active fish. Fished several area creeks in my neck of the woods and the bite was good. Been picking up some nice size Bluegill 8 to 9 inches. Also plenty of nice fat Greens. Hopefully you can make it back down during the fall! Side Note: Love your fishing buddy!

Nice post. Are you using a 3wt? I am on my second year of fly fishing and love it. I have a creek close by and the fish stay active just about year around. Great place to practice my fly fishing skills.

Great post and fish. I still haven't caught any warmouth this year either. I went looking for them a couple times with no luck.

Thanks Chuck, Curtis, Will and Jamie. Arthur is great fishing and he's only 8 months.
Curtis- 3wt is perfect for creeks. I was using a 4wt
Lets go on a Warmouth mission Jamie.
Chuck- Can't wait to fish down there again.

Thanks. Just about anything you catch on a 3wt is a puller!
