Good luck, I've had a canoe and a jon boat up there a few times, always an adventure. My little one just turned 5, and she's good for a little while before she's ready to head home.
Watch out for those copperheads, I heard someone at 377 got airlifted out last weekend after being bitten??

Man went out this morning and caught one Sandie.. The water is very dirty and still rushing need to give a couple of days. seen a few other boats out and they were having the same luck. Hopefully someone has a better report.

today i passed the bridge on 114 about a mile west of 377 several times while working. i have seen people at this spot for days now and was always wishing i had the time to stop there and fish. however i noticed that two of the trucks were getting the orange sticker treatment by roanoke pd... they were parked well over 50' from the bridge, what is the problem?

I get the stickers when I'm off 114 too, not sure what you need to do. I think if you're anywhere near the shoulder they give them to you. And they're the stinkin "abandoned vehicle" stickers, when they know full well the car hasn't been there 24hrs, sometimes I've had it put on within an hour of stopping. Oh well, what are ya gonna do.

Man Denton Creek is up. We got a Fish n Ski from the lake up way west of 377. All the way to Henrietta Creek and a little ways up it. Caught one little Sandie at Henrietta Hole where it meets Denton Creek. Talked to lots a guys in boats and on bank. No one catching much Tuesday. Maybe things will turn around if we can get some dry wheather. On the bright side it's not hard to get to the water this year.

Try the deeper holes for the crappie. Let it fall all the way to the bottom and then slow roll it. They usually hit it before it reaches the bottom. Normally you will find a deep hole on the up creek side of each shallow area. Hope that helps.

We went yesterday before the storm. Creek was up several feet from last week. We were schooled by an ol'boy that said he hadn't been on the creek in 20 years. Tube jig off of the bottom did the trick, for him anyway. 10 or 12 in about an hour with half a dozen missed fish. Another couple showed up with minnows on the bottom that caught a few.
Hopefully by Sunday it will be down but don't hold your breath.

OMG!!!!! me my dad and my friend went to denton creek but not at 377, its a new secret spot we found and TORE tha sandies up!!!!!!!! it was our first trip out there and we didnt know wat to expect but when we got out there they bit about every 2 casts!!!!! so easy!!!! we started out using different types of road runners and caught a few occasional sandies but i tied on a white rooster tail and started destroying them and my dad and my friend saw that so i guess they got a little jealous and did the exact same thing and came right next to me and started fishing...... their cool right?? but we caught about 70 sandies in about an hour and had to call it quits because of the dark..... hoping on goin next weekend and tearin them up again!!!!!!

Way to go minnowkiller. Good to see someone else getting away from the norm. I found white 1/8 oz rooster tails, small bait works great, would get a strike and usually a hook up on every cast, as well as Zoom tiny flukes with a 1/16 jig fished about 5’ under a pegged bobber. I hope to be back out Sunday or Tuesday for sure. I’ve been sick as he!! since Saturday and am just starting to feel human again.
