FishnDenton Thanks for the info. Ya, I don't plan on going that far down the creek. Also, boat is now in shop and I am ready to get it back to go try again.

DonnyParker, that place you spoke of, "where the creek gets real skinny to the right with the rushing water on a bend", about a mile above that is another challenging shallow bend. With a great deal of effort, we got my boat past the first one, but not the next. There may be other barriers beyond that one. Henrietta is about a mile & 3/4 from upstream from where you stopped.
Some years there's enough water to get past those spots, but more often not. It doesn't usually matter though. When they're biting, you can catch fish all up & down the creek. Try to put your lure in the deepest part of the channel where ever you are.

The last time that I was out there was about a month ago, lots has changed now. Back in Feb, I was finding them right before that skinny bend in the deep water. I get the boat back today and plan to be out there tomorrow. There are a couple of the small creeks off of Denton Creek that I am curious about. At any rate, I will be out on the water tomorrow. If I don't find them one place, I will keep moving.

Arrived Trophy Club Saturday morning at 7 to find the gate locked. Waited with a couple other boaters until 8, when we learned the ramp was closed until 10:00 today (Sunday). We all drove to Meadowmere and launched. The ride up to the creek in the face of the north wind was rough and cold, but we caught plenty of fish, found 'em all along the creek, just drifting. Left 'em biting at about 2pm.
Met guide Phill Hurlbut, who diverted his clients from Lewisville to Trophy Club due to wind conditions, and went the extra mile(s), literally, to ferry 'em from Meadowmere into the creek to deliver limits. Nice work, Phill. (I'm the guy in the kingfisher).

First time ever fishing this area. I must be doing it wrong. Put in at trophy club and went up past the bridge a ways. Not one fish. Help a brother out.
Went up the Nolan in the Brazos last weekend and did decent. Thought I would try Denton creek but I struck out.

![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/04/full-94889-7297-20190331_184433.jpg) Ended up with 23 keepers today. Randy they are way back there. Maybe 4 or 5 miles past 377. I took my 16 foot tracker. Was about a half mile from Henrietta hole when I couldn't go any farther but it didn't matter. They were stacked in different pockets below there. Probably threw back 15 that were too small. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. Im guessing I didn't go far enough up river. Will have to try again. I went a little ways past the bridge but not nearly that far. Those are some nice fish. Thanks for the help.

Well I was one of the guys that showed up at the gate on Saturday. With the wind, I just went back home.
