Almost every time i'm at my dads house I head down to Denton creek below the dam at Lake Grapevine(sometimes my dad comes too) Denton Creek is less that a quarter of a mile from his house so I fish there all the time. This post will contain updated fishing reports for the creek as well as what flies are working with what fish. It will also contain pictures of the fish that are caught. I will try to update this post frequently and if you have any questions please ask.

Here is the first report:

06/28/2014

Today the fishing was slow i caught 1 bluegill and 3 green sunfish in about 15 minutes all on a small white popper with a red belly and a red mouth. after the 4 fish i didn't get any bites for about 10 minutes so i changed to a white woolly bugger and after another 5-10 minutes, nothing. After switching to a brown foam hopper i got a few bites but couldn't set the hook so i packed it up and headed home. the water clarity was pretty decent in the shallows but as it dropped off in the area i was fishing you could not see a thing below 2 feet. I saw a decent sized bass cruising around the rocks by the bank, but every time i tried to cast to him he would casually turn around and swim away. confused

Picture time:





The whole little drain outlet area is full of green sunfish and on a good day you can catch them on every other cast! not very many bass in this part though but it's a blast to catch one when your targeting sunfish.

That's all for now more to come soon!

Looks like fun to me. It's a good count for around a half hour, lol

Nice report.

Quick update: I went down to the creek yesterday and someone (not sure who) cut down some of the trees around the path. Those trees were then used to block the path so no one can get down there. The trail used to look really good and now there are cut down trees and branches laying everywhere. I'm not sure what to do, the city owns the trail so i was thinking of calling them about it. Pictures will follow in a later post.

Here are the images: notice the clean cuts, so its definitely not a snap and a few other trees had been cut as well. (sorry for the blurred images)
