Went out sunday morning and hit the creek close to my brother-n-law work. Ended up catching 7 and only keeping five. Ended up give them away to someone there. Was in the creek at 10am got most with in the hour. All on "grasshopper jig" that I made. Just the Color is a little different then Jiggum. Marc should be posting pic of the catch later on today.

that place looks familar




nice catch cecil

good job guys!!!! shows they are starting to show up.... another month it will be hot!

Thanks for the report. I was thinking about checking W/R/C on Sunday too.

Here's the jigs that they were caught on

wonder when they will be in hickory creek?

Ah, sssssssshhhhhhhh, now don't tell anyone, but, . . . !
Remember now, this is just between me and you----

Rudy

Are you guys catching them with jigs and bobbers or just tight lining?

ill be going there sometime tomorrow since ill be in the area.... ill report what i find.....

fast moving muddy water!!!!!

Hopefully on monday it'll be okay by then.

fished for an hr yesterday and pulled in 3 crappie and six sandies. sandies were 10-12 inchers and the crappie were all small with one being 12 inches.

Good Job sir! nice to meet you the other day, finally!

Rudy

Anyone know how the water looks today ?

anthony its probably pretty muddy because yesterday afternnon the water was high on the lake banks .of course it went down over night at the lake but the creek should still be murky

nice to meet yu too, Rudy! -finally

I went today for about 2 hours and got 1 good bump. Saw only one fish caught but it was a keeper. It needs to get ALOT colder. The water was pretty clear but had more current than usual. I just explored the creek.

i think the only time is early morn (sunrise) to catch any. Some structures are a lil different this year... seems like their a lil harder to catch! haha i should of known it was u fishinaholic!! haha i didnt catch anythin else after that 1 keeper.

Ill see ya next time up there brotha...

ya, i noticed all my spots were clear of debris. guess i have to float around in the fish cats, and graph out the new structures....

well i guess we'll be scouting the creek for the next few days. kinda waiting for the water clarity to be a lil clearer...

I thought that was you but I wasn't sure..... It was nice to meet you.

Do you fish w/bobber???
fishif

fishsif most people use small bobbers ( with stoppers ) for better casting accurracy in tight spots .but you can fish without bobber when they are more agrressive . the slip bobber technique allows you to keep the jig in the strike zone longer tho . if you are fishing off the bridge straight down you dont need bobber .

my ? is this if i fish from the bank i guess i need to use a slip cork with a stop to jig for the crappie? and this are there any creeks in west fort worth to catch them in?

if you are fishing a creek that has more the 4 feet a slip bobber is ideal . can you imagine throwing a jig an bobber trying to fish 8 feet down in 9 ft of water ? you can buy some stops or use a rubber band for a stop .sorry cant help you in ft worth spots
