oh i wasnt planning on taking my tube in the creek, i was gonna use it on the main lake on a few coves, if i ever fish the creek im gonna be banking it. I know how ferocious they get when they arent catching and i start pulling them out. Almost fell into the drink when a couple of guys literally pushed me out of my spot...

tube in wr lake is grounds for a fine.

that is messed up.... I can understand the argument from both sides but still the man didn't know. Just let him have a warning and give him a ticket next time he get caught. Some police men are just jerks... Never seen them catching any lunatic on highway who blew by me time to time.. I feel for that guy and i also believe the state is doing this for money too.

he was going to fight the ticket, anyone know the out come.

I went out on Friday for a couple hours, I caught about 12 with 5 keepers. I lost 1 keeper as I lifted it out of the water. I was using pink and black jig bout 5' under a bobber.

Well hit the creek today about an hour before the rain and caught 15 with only 4 keepers. They were only down 2ft and chasing the shad to the top. Once the rain hit only caught two more but deeper. Then when it stopped, not even a bump so i left and the 4 crappie were let go. They are still in there but catching more smaller 10 1/2 and down there, then i ever have out there this year. Oh well it was good while it lasted, wont be much longer till the sandbass start running up the creek in big numbers

Thanks guys for your tips and posts.'I'll be in the area tomorrow. Thanks again.

Where is exactly is this place located on? Can someone put up the google map address?

Thanks!

Northwest Highway and Lawther Road

Does anyone know where you can buy minnows in the Lake Highlands / White Rock Creek area.

Thanks.

off of 78 a tad bit past Lawthur

I was out there yesterday evening, and everyone around us were keeping everything they caught. I did see 1 guy throw fish back that were too small, but everyone else kept anything and everything ! At the bridge i could see from lawther someone throwing a throw net, i didn't even want to see what they were catching and keeping !

It's actually on Grand, right past Gaston (next to the liquor store)

quick question. i bought some mr. crappie green 10lb monofillament line that i used last year for sandies. most people were mixed on what line was best. some say 4lb clear, some people said it was fine, some said 4lb green. i dont wanna continue to use the 10lb because it kills the fight. fish have no shot. 4lb would be cool, but i fish in a lot of areas with trees and roots and rocks so i waste more lures. any good info would help. i want to have more fun and fight5 longer, but i dont want my wife loosing 100 bucks worth of lures a day! lol let me know

all i use is 6lb mr crappie, i used the 4lb once and did not care for it, broke to easily for my taste i would try 6lb and try it first then go down from their

stren gold 8 lb is all you need ! i usually ust 6 lb in clearer water with not as much debrit in it !
