snowyriver,
I live on the lake in the Jones Branch creek area up the Richland arm. My lines are in timber on the creek channel in 20-25 ft.
Jim,
Good to hear from you. We've been using the same techniques and rigs you showed us on Tawokoni several years ago. I'm looking forward to getting the rods out and working the windblown shallows. Sounds like you are getting good size fish. Dad has a 30 gallon trash can of sour wheat on his dock - you'd be proud.
I need to find out where to order those unweighted cigar corks. I've worn out the ones you gave me. Take it easy.

Sorry can't understand the lingo... What is RC? Richard Chambers or Rebecca Creek

Rebecca Creek

Sorry guys - Richland Chambers lake just east of Corsicana, Tx.
Where is Rebecca Creek?

Ohh, Rebecca Creek is above canyon lake on the river. Not really sure if that is the name of the creek but that is the name of the road its off of. Me and my buds call it Rebecca Creek

hey steve, i havent been to chambers in a long while. is there still bank access in either the richland or the chambers creeks. although i'm a carper, i love catchin and releasing them giant high finned blues. thanks in advance.

Kevin,
I have not been that far up either arm of the lake. There are a couple of public ramps up each arm. Not very much public access other than the ramps. I'll get my map out this evening and see what is available. Fisherman's Point down near the dam has quite a bit of bank access for a small fee.

Steve I will be movin in Jones Branch creek in April are May when we get the house done we will have to get out in the trees
for some Blues & Channels

Kevin,
Richland Creek public access is Cheneyboro ramp out of Navarro and Crab Creek ramp off of 3243.
Chambers Creek access is ramp at the 2859 bridge or Mattie Caston Park off of 287.
Main lake free/public ramp is at the end of 309 at 287. You will find some bank access at these ramps.
If you want to camp and fish the bank at fisherman's point - they have a good fishing peninsula.
Hope this helps.

if you were fishing for cats this weekend would you go to 309 or fishremans point......I've never to fishermans point, dont know te territory

The 309 flats are across the main lake from fisherman's point. If the wind is out of the south I'd fish the 309 flats and Pelican Island area. If from the north or west F.P. would be ok. I have fished the little coves around windsock point (just east of F.P.) with soured grain and punchbait - did very well.
You'll find good shallows and nice drop offs near the 309 ramp. Good luck.
