Fished Decker Monday and Tuesday and fished the San Gabriel at Circleville Wednesday and Thursday. I finally have time to report. Sorry if this is a little long.

Monday 03/24: Fished Decker fom 7 - 10 a.m. using Hellbender/Pet spoon. Caught 7 hybrids, all around 4 lbs. and 4 largemouth, biggest was 5 lbs.

Tuesday 03/25: Fished Decker fom 6:45 - 10:30 a.m. using the hellbender/pet spoon again. Caught 4 hybrids, all around 4 lbs. and 70+ whites, 2 largemouth and 1 crappie. I stayed busy! I had to leave and the whites were still biting.

Wednesday 03/26: Fished Circleville from 10 -1 p.m. using river minnows. Caught 60+ whites and limited out. Most were right below the size limit or I could have limited out with my first 30 or so casts!

Thurday 03/27: Fished Circleville fom 8 - 1 p.m. using river minnows. This time I was able to bring my wife and she had a blast! Caught 100+ whites and limited out. The best part was watching my wife catch fish! I love to bring her and she usually outfishes me.

The whites at Circleville were extremely aggressive. We were using minnows about 3 feet down fom a cork. As we caught a white and it made a run upstream several fish would actually come to the top and stike the cork that was splashing on the surface. Every time we landed a fish at least one more would follow it to the bank. They were real slow on any lures while we were there.

It was a great week. I wish it was that easy all the time.

Where is the best place around to buy minnows?

THanks!

Hogeye Bait shop at entrance to Decker Lake. You can't miss it

Do you buy them there when fishing Granger also.

Thanks for the info!

The Chevron station in Circleville

How do you fish that Hellbender/Pet spoon combo? I hear that's pretty productive at Decker. Thanks.
