run begin? I was wondering because white rock creek runs by my house and i plan to fly fish there for sandbass durring the sandbass run. Also what are good flys or lures for em

It could be Feb-April. Just depends...

Full moon March.

Feb-April depending on temperature and amount of rain.

Clousers and deceivers

Late Feb to late March usually, the water flow and temp has a lot to do with it. For lures I like Rooster Tails, Roadrunners, floating Rapala Minnows and other smaller lures. Roadrunners are good in the creeks because they don't get snagged to often due to the single hook curved to the top of the lure instead of the bottom.

Old rule of thumb: the whites are in the creeks when the dogwoods bloom. Since I do not know where any dogwood trees are, I use my neighbor's bradford pear tree as a surrogate. I have caught most of my creek whites in the March/April time frame, typically a few days after a good rain. The water flow brings the whites up the creek, but you need to wait a few days for the water clarity to become acceptable. I like small maribou or curly-tail Roadrunners (red head and white or chartreuse body), white or chartreuse curly-tail gurbs and small in-line spinners (Mepps, Roostertails, etc.)

Thanks JCG57. I have a Dogwood Tree in my front yard. It will now be my species calender lol.

Any "Sooners" in the creeks yet?

well if you dont know what to use i would checkout moes tackle unlimited. everything on there can catch em.

I have found if you wait until "They Run" your to late for the bigger ones.

the fishing is good right now

winter fishing is supposed to be a secret.... shhh dont tell anyone but we are catching them

My Oklahoma Red Bud tree always is starting blume when the report says the run has started..... Nature

They don't run they swim.

hahaha...
