thank you I'll check this place out as well

Parking along 377:
Guys, since we can't park at the old parking spot any more, I am asking your ideas of where we can park. I draw a map of what I heard recently but I am still not sure whether I can park at the Roanoke park location or on Al Slaughter new construction area. I also marked the locations for the big hole and some called the rapid, hopefully some of you will not get mad at me. I figured that if anybody is looking at this thread, they are entitled to some help.-Can't get the image to show up.

GeirgeZ last thursday, have been catching them there for 2 weeks. Look back in this thread and you will see info on the temp damn location, easy to spot,east of the bridge.

I went to the hole and worked back two to three bends yesterday evening ~530pm til dark and did not get a sniff! Using white w/ red head road runner and chart roadrunner. ARGHH. I must not be holding my mouth right.

Boy do I understand not holding your mouth right!
Went today and NOT one fish was on a stringer and not one was found by me either.
Went to a pond afterwords and found 3 LMB that are still in the pond read to small to go home...
At least my hands smell like fish LOL.

Does anyone think its possible to launch a kayak on 35 by the speedway and make to the marshal creek boat ramp? A buddy and me are going to try on Saturday. This will also be my first time on the creek so is there anything I should look out for besides the stumps?

txyz, I am not familiar with the creek that far west. I would think that it would be possible in a kayak. However, I believe that there will be some places that require you to drag through.

Got shutout again.

Saw the game warden on a flat bottom boat going upstream.

He seemed like a nice guy.

what's up with these spring whities????

They be very Black and Hiding.

I was in this river for the first time on Saturday 3-12-11 and it was pretty cool. I was fishing for LMB, but caught acouple of sandies because green was being stingy

This was a pretty cool place and out of the wind - most of the time

Anyone remember a little red Nitro?

O.k. gentleman on East Byron nelson blvd. and Oak st there is a Velaro gas station they sell minnows , and I have always used the little fishie with the blue top . $1.19 at Walmart and than put it on a colored jig head . heavier will get you to the bottom. and look for the deep pockets with sand bars. don't be afraid to move around like the fish do. and if this doesn't help than I don't know what will. and if you take a boat up just go slow . it is to shallow to get to the hole in a boat other than a flat bottom , not unless you have a flat bottom with a 90 hp. jet propelled motor or swamp motor .and most boats that go fast sit shallower in the water so don't get to mad, cause they stir the fish up for you.. have fun and clean up after yourselves.

Well Chad you are right on the money, I use a white with a black back lit�l fishie on a jig head. And you have to move around a lot. Was fishing with one of our friends this morning. I was having a hard time to get them to bite and he was tarring them up. And yes they came round as always, but it has a tough day .We all have days like that 20 Sandys, but the big females always make a tough day better. In a way that�s not bad for 6 hours of fishing

With a bobber or not?
At this time I would not waste my time with minnows. But I also have not got any fish LOL.
hmmmm?

Next time try a four inch Zoom Fluke, shad or shad flake color and use a small jig head.
