In Denton  Sorry, couldn't help myself. It's the main feeder for Grapevine lake, up around Trophy Club (Roanoke).

Went two weeks ago, and only a few, they should be on the move soon, but I think we have another week or so. But, head on out there and let us know.  I would start closer to the lake, for now.

I use to live in Roanoke about a mile south of the creek. Most years the run was in full swing around the end of Feb first week of March. Just depends on weather and water flow. Probably wont happen that early with big front Friday night. Before the front might be good. Small Rapalas on an ultralight spin rod with 6-8 lb is what I used. Before I got married I had a roommate for a while. One day he came home from the creek all out of breath and said hurry get your cast net. I said why? He said there were a couple orientals down there just pulling them in. I said yeah, you know that is illegal?

On google maps look for Knob Hills Bike Trail up 377 past Roanoke. Park there, walk south.
What is the creek like after that train derailed a few years ago?

Water is still too cold. May be a couple of fish but no numbers. With next weeks cold the run will probably get going in mid March this year.

If the weather cooperates, I plan to head to Denton Creek this weekend. I assume this cold front is going to keep them deep for another week or two, but I'm itching to get the Hobie out!
Have any of you fished it in the past week or so? I'm curious to know if they started to move up the creek before this most recent front came through.
Thanks in advance.

Im not familiar with Denton creek but want to try creeks on lakes near me. Our creeks I believe are fairly small and shallow. When you fish a creek for whites, do you fish as far up as possible, near the mouth, or somewhere different?
Keep doin what youre doin, youll keep gettin what youre gettin.

You cant fish just any creek for white, you will need to fish a primary feeder creek to a reservoir. They will move up the creek for the spawn. You will catch them anywhere from the mouth all the way up to an obstruction (spillway, shallow rapids, brush, etc).... it really depends upon where they are in the spawning cycle.

Fished Denton Creek off of 377 two weeks ago after work and didn't have any luck. Heading out today to the same place to see if they have made it that far up the creek. Friday and Saturday are also a possibility, weather permitting. Will come back and post results.

I went out for a couple hours on Valentines Day and struck out. I was actually surprised that the water wasn't any higher than it was.

Where is a good place to launch a kayak for Denton Creek? I know there is a bicycle area off 377 and was hoping that's a possibility?
Thank you Lord for the gifts in my life
