Hey yall, Ive got a question. There is a creek coming off a reservoir near my house. Average depth is 6-7 feet. Undercut banks and a lot of overhanging trees. Do yall think it would be worth it to hang some limb lines with live green sunfish. I have caught flatheads on the main lake,so i know the lake has them. Thank yall

For sure! A lot of fish stay up the creeks during summer. Definitely worth a shot or two

Can someone explain how the Feds count recreational Red Snapper catch?

If you get any rain and the creek starts running or rising you will catch for sure.
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

If it's legal ain't no way in hell it's catch and release, it's CATCH & GREASE, except ROUGH (TRASH) Fish

Stay low profile as there are plenty out and about looking for limb lines to rob.
I prefer to tie off to exposed roots down low and often below the water.

Yes sir I will. Thats good advice! Im planning on setting them late evening and returning at the crack of dawn. Plus, I think the snakes have scared off a lot of the fisherman in that area. I havent seen a truck down there in weeks

More snakes the better IMO
Water snakes dont worry none,nothing to be afraid of for sure
More life you see in an area the better Ive learned
