I went last wenesday

ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD THENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN??????

NOTHINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

HA HA HA

ended up goin to denison dam. caught some stripers maybe 13-15 inches long. didnt keep any cuz i was too picky, i was lookin for the monster stripers!! i dunno, hopefully some rain comes thru this week. maybe ask one of my homies to go with me.

The creek is just the spillway. About a quarter mile after it goes under the highway 47 bridge, the creek bends to the east for about a half mile then hits the Sabine River Channel.Then it's the Sabine all the way to Toledo Bend and then to the Gulf.
About half a mile north of the bridge on 47 is the old Sabine channel. Just past the channel back in the woods is about a 3 acre lake that is good for crappie in the spring. We used to go back in there, I don't know if it is still open. I think its called moon lake.

so the stripers and hybrids are native to only the creek? I was not aware that Toledo Bend had any stripers or hybrids. Do these fish stay in the creek all their lives?

Some come over the dam, some come upstream from Toledo Bend, especially when the river is as high as it was earlier this year. Toledo Bend is a pretty good lake for hybrids and stripers

Are y'all getting any rain this week in the Terrell and Wills Point area? It has been raining on and off in the Dallas area this week. Today in Dallas it looks like it gonna dump 10 inches of rain...very thick and dark cloud hanging over us. I hope the water overflow pretty good over the Tawakoni Dam Spillway.

I am heading out there again this weekend. Last weekend was very slow at the dam. Caught only 3 Stripers all day long from 5am to 8pm!

Had a friend head out there yesterday. only 2 hybrids all day. Report was that the water was MUDDY and FOAMY although the water is coming over.

FISH ON!

We didn't get any rain today. Tuesday before last we got 3 and a half inches!! Saturday almost an inch. A couple days ago about an inch. I'm about 5 miles west of Wills Point. I was hitting the dam pretty hard in April and early May. Had a couple of pretty good days. Saw countless big hybrids caught. Sure was crowded though, even on weekday mornings at 5 a.m. Lots of big sandies. The creek was pretty full and fast then. Time to go to the main lake and get after the catfish. Good bankfishing for cats on T.

Thanks for the update!

Excellente! Water is still overflowing...niceee!

Went out in the AM and only came back with 1 striper! Water's there but the fish arent.

Sand bass and drum to be had behind the bridge on live shad

We caught 1 Striper and 3 big Sandies in the early morning...all the fish caught were on live Shad. Nothing nibbling on the perch. We left at 11am...nothing but Drum between 8-11am. Water was still flowing a little and feel little cool to warm near the surface. It got too hot for us during the day. We might not be going back next week. It looks like there will be no more rain in sight near Emory or Wills Point.

I was out as well. Caught 1 Striper and 1 MAGNUM sandy that measured 18!

Water was barely coming over and felt "piss" warm. Fish are not very active since O2 levels where low.

Caught the Striper under a cork and jig just BARELY twitching the jig and letting the water move the jig. Sandy was caught on 2" shad.

saw water temps on the main lake at 90 degrees sunday

I did see a large striper, prob about 24ish inches dancin on top of the water. Think one of those cranes tried to have him for lunch or maybe it was because a lack of oxygen. If it dont rain in the next week or so, I think its gonna be BAD for the fish that has not been caught. The one striper I did manage to pull up was all head. Not really sure what those fish are still doing down there.

THEY ARE STARVIN, but wont eat

Shad are everywhere too! I have noticed over many years...when the river temperature get kinda warm. The BIG Stripers just like to cruise around in the middle of the river doing nada or float on top of the water at night and not feeding on anything all night long.

Was out there sunday early using shad, perch and tried some other things i had in my bag and the other 3 guys that were with me caught nothing but other people were catching but not that often.

hahahaha fishing is dead there

New Update:

Two people were arrested for taking too many fish on Monday. Apparently, fish were biting on Monday. My dad's friend said, Game Warren was waiting at the parking lot for those fishermen to leave with their fish. And, ambush them at the parking lot. Two coolers were packed with fish.

Right on!!!

That is right...that would explain why I am not catching any fish during the weekend. They are all gone from that fish runs. I have noticed lately that fish are really biting during the weekday. Too bad, I have to work. I hate going there on the weekend at 4am and catch nothing but dinky Drums all day long. It uses to be fun when the Spillway was over flowing like crazy. Massive fish in the river...everyone was catching fish left and right.

We do not dare taking undersized fish or catching more than our daily limit. Most of the time we catches about 2-3 Stripers between me and my dad all day. We believed everyone should catch some because it will get people out of the house and outdoor. It will also encourage people to bring their family esp. the youngun to fish. Hook them while they are young and they will be a fisherman or fisherwoman for life...it works for me. Fishing is the new game of life!

hahaha thats some funny shhhhhh...... Finally maybe the rest of the people won't do it also. I've seen a group of guys that caught their limits 3 times before they left and this was everyday. I use to go everyday, catch my limit and go home.

I been fishing ever since I could remember and I love it! I'm 23 and I'd rather be fishing than being out there on the streets doing dumb things that would get me in trouble.
