I am plannin on going out with a buddy in from Ohio tomorrow early afternoon? 1st time on this Creek. I've read the threads and have seen the road off of FW on Google Maps, but want to make sure I can park there? Heard some stories about tickets and I don't need any of those.Any suggestions to the New Guy here? I want to make sure that we get on the fish. I generally fish the Old Alton/Hickory Creek, but they haven't seem to move into the creek yet.. TOO much construction going on at the mouth. Help me out someone, We are both avid fishermen, and won't take your spots, and from what I read, there is plenty to share? I just want to show my northern friend howicatchum in the Texas creek runs...

Sorry KaLuB, that was just a lame attempt at humor on my part in response to a post by Fisherman Joe on page 55. Don't you know your Jimi Hindrix tunes?

BTW KaLuB, you paddled past us last night around 9:00 near Castle Rd. but I couldn't remember your name. (Rude,right?) Anyway, we were on the bank, not in the canoe. I'll try to remember your name next time!

Never made it out there. By the time I got to Plano from work I didnt want to drive over to the creek. The traffci was terrible yesterday. I guess beause of the that mulch truck that fliped on the george bush. My friends went though....Ill ask them how they did.

went this morning at 7 to 9 am, got 5 hybrids biggest was 6lb and smallest was 3lb, and around 20 sandies. Once again i dindt have a stringer but a really nice asian guy saw me struggle carrying the fish on a branch so he offer me a stringer and i end up giving him 8 sandies and 1 thin hybrids pushing 19 inches. Most fish are caught on a lucky craft pointer jerk bait. walk along the bank and fish about 100 feet upstream of fw bridge. btw saw tarponfly under the fw bridge. man thats great for you but it sure Scuked for me this morning  . i was fishing about 200 yards from the firewheel bridge where that tree has those roots branching everywhere on the little part of land you can fish on...first time on that spot too and didnt have such a good feeling about it..comes out, NO FISH.....my buddies downstream managed to catch a 16 1/2 pushing 17 inch sandbass and another 15 incher...thats it...we were there around 6 left at 9...minnows did not work at all..they took rattletrap type baits today. btw, what where you using to catch all those fishes? i seen a bunch of people at the firewheel bridge..its like elbow to elbow. maybe next time i'll head over there and get cozy with yah. fish seems to be over there more. i'll make my way there another day this week just dont know yet. good fishin!
