Got all set up at tickey been here about 25 minutes and have had 2 runs and 1 landed all on chicken breast. First one was a nice 5lbs blue!!!

What are the park hours? Been a long time since I've been out there. Their website says they don't open until April.

Not too sure on the hours but I pulled in alittle before 7.

I'll give you a report on my day. I scoped out a couple spots I've been eyeing on Google maps, but I first got my lines wet at tickey. I had a total of 5 runs and 2 landed at tickey the first being 5 lbs and the 2nd was about 8 lbs. Didn't get anymore action after 10 and decided to go to the Lucas bridge. I put my line in the water and within 2 minutes I had a run and it was a nice one, measured 38 inches, I'll get a pic posted. My girlfriend called right in the middle of the action and decided then she could bare the cold and wanted me to come get her. I picked her up we went straight back to the bridge and didn't get a bite and we left at 6. Once the wind stopped so did my bites. But it was an awesome day and I can't wait to hit it again this week!!!! Thanks again guys for all the advice it was Tremendous help!!!!

Thanks for the info!

thanks for the report. glad to hear chicken breast works as that's about the only bait i can get. i mite try next sat morning at highland park as that's the most closest park from Mckinney. where do you park at lucas bridge?

I took the kiddo out to Tickey Creek park Saturday morning. Got out there about 7am and fished with chicken breast until 9:30pm. No bites. Threw the cast net and didn't get any shad. With the way the wind had been, I was expecting to be busy keeping bait on my lines. At least I got to spend some time with the kiddo.

It was strange Saturday. I managed six out of my kayak but expected more. For some reason I did not gragh any bait or fish in less than 14 fow, and really did not see much until I hit 24 feet. That must be why you blanked. My fish came from 27-29 fow but I was down at Little Ridge. Bait was as deep as 41 feet. Maybe it's the full moon.

i did go to highland park on Sat. fished from 8 to 11. managed to get one nice size channel cat on shrimp which was C&R to another fisherman who had a nice blue and channel of his own. it was very slow for sure..

I am thinking i am going to hit little ridge or ticky next time.

Good to know it wasn't just me.

I may give it a try in a few weeks, once it warms up a little.

Thanks for the reports guys! I may take kiddos to tickey this weekend? It may be another weekend at towne lake killin the trout?! good stuff folks

I went out last Wednesday night to highland and was skunked. Went out Sunday after the race for about an hour and a half at the Highland boat ramp and was skunked again. Going to try and get out again sometime on thursday so hopefully the luck will change.

Way to stay at it! Wonder if the kitties are at 380 bridges off the rocks! That may be another option for ya?! Good luck

Give the point off Brockdale a shot as well.
