Is there pretty good fishing in their fishing barge? I have always gone to the joe pool state state park barge, but thinking about going to lynn creek 2 morrow..

I have friends that go there, and say tehy do pretty well..
Dunno what that means tho.

I went last year and did okay..mostly smaller crappie though 8-10 inch range.

hey i fish that barge every weekend and the bight is best in the early morning right at sun up the jig of choice right now would b pink/pink/ white

the fish come in waves and there are alot of throwbacks but at least u have a pretty steady action at times \

if u have anymore questions just send me a pm

Is the barge at the state park any good? I'm assuming it's not very good if you're wanting to check out the barge at Lynn Creek.

thanks. have you fished joe pool during the spawn?

I did better at the fishing pier in the mornings in the state park using minnows and tube jigs around the rip-rap, this was towards the end of the spawn ,late march early june, you can just imagine how the spawn bite was.

lloyd park is great for the spawn, you can just walk around the bank and catch them in a foot of water or less.

say man, when do u go to lynn creek? and do u know how to get there from 20?

oh I love lloyd park...jigging in those creeks, you can see the fish come hit your jigs

from 20 take the great southwestern blvd. exit and go south . past the resedential district a little ways and it will have a split , stay on the right and follw that rd. past camp wisdom keep going straight till you see a bridge ( the marina is on the left by the oasis restuaraunt before crossing bridge )

thanks for the detailed report. are you using tube jigs or hair jigs?

i use a little of both but i use mostly hair jigs that i tie myself they work really well i can send u some if u want i tie a bunch everyday i will send u some of the joe pool special jigs if u want them just send me a pm with ur info and stuff

oo if ne of yall go this weekend please report dont got classes mon. or tue. so im thinkin' bout goin

i will deff. b there this weekend sometime

I would like to escape work and give it a shot out there. I haven't been out there since last year!!!!

sweet man deffinitly let me know how you do!

Has anyone fished here at night or early evening? I was wondering how the bite it at this time

normally the bite is pretty good right as the sun comes up and after dark but with this shifty weather im not sure

thanks, i have enough jigs to last me a lifetime. too many in fact. but if you could keep me updated on the hot colors that would be great.

how are you working the jig? in the winter i have the best luck keeping the jig as still as possible. are you tipping the jig?

i dont keep it as still as most of the jiggers there i normally move it alittle more no its just a jig without a nibble or minner or anything

ive heard it is bad

its pretty bad IF you dont know the right way to fish it, it can be productive if you take the right approach, ive had tons of success free lining live bait over the hydrilla and weeds, and letting the minnow swim right above the surface in the barge this is a great way to get some nice size LMB as far as crappie go the only time its even worth it is the rare times the crappie school in there, which they do from time to time, but in all seriousness the LMB bite can be very good if you go with a lil patience and some knowledge and background of the area also the black bass and catfish have been bitin pretty good to

I am thinking about going out to Lynn Creek in the morning. Any recent reports?
