I was looking for any public areas with creek access to try around joe pool lake .. I�ve fished walnut creek and caught a few large mouth .. I was wanting to find a spot to maybe catch some sandies during the run . I�ve never tried anywhere around joe pool except recently.

I have caught Sand bass in Walnut creek. Better though is Village creek where it runs through Kennedale on it's way to Lake Arlington.

I never found a true, peaking sand bass run off of Joe Pool. Either that, or I timed the locations poorly. I have caught some off Walnut Creek and 2 others, but never anything like at other runs though. Sucks, because it's nearby and it's one more run to take a little fish from, and that keeps you from taking more fish from any one given run or the others. Well, me, at least. I'd rather take a single limit from several spots than multiple limits from one spot or a few. Release the rest for others to enjoy and to keep the run populations going strong for years to come. Maybe somebody else knows something I don't know. If they do, be sure to share it with me lol
