Low Bass I sent you a pm and Thanks again,it was pretty awesome yall catching the Blue and the Boy glad he outfished yall  and wanted to let the other people know you launch at trophy club park and the biggest boat I seen was a grizzly with a 50 hp. motor .. I haven't took a boat up yet but I do know a tilt and trim helps and I personally would pull past some of the rapid areas to not beat my props up.. GOODLUCK EVERYONE .. I see some rain and some more 70 degree days

http://binged.it/xEZvL8 trying to give a map pic not sure how to. This shows a pipe in creek it is about 200 yards north of the 377 bridge so watch out it is submerged.. http://binged.it/zcEZFj when you look at its location zoom out to see the 377 bridge

That pipe is not a pipe it is a concrete wall and I have seen it out of the water many times over the years. It is thick enough that I have walked up and down it. There is a hole on the south side of it that looks like they blasted a hole in it at one point. It was an old dam on the creek many years ago. Right now its about 2-3 feet under the surface and if the Corp continues letting water out like they have been it will take out some lower units before the run is over.

It's a little scary getting back there, today was the first time I have taken my boat back there 16 lowe W/ 35 Johnson but it was worth the nail biting drive

Jacky your right I keep wanting to call this a pipe .. I recall there was an old Damn and this is it. Like you say it loves lower units and it cannot be avoided since it goes all the way across.. if i get my boat running I want to try to mark that thing somehow..

Had a good couple of hours on the creek today. White bass bite was slow, crappie were biting consistently while I was there. Ran into GeorgeG (I think that's what he said his name was.) Good times. taylor, it was me.

I went about a week ago. Zero Sandies but a 3 foot gar that was a lot of fun. Got him to the side of boat and held him so I could grab my needle nose pliers to try to retrieve my lures and as I reached over the gunnel he started chewing the line off. I could actually hear the grinding noise. Then he disappeared with my slab and jigs. He was a lot of fun and made a hard run to get under the boat.
The ramp there at the back of trophy Club is somewhat primitive. I didn't have anyone fishing with me that day so I had no way to tie the boat to bank and I don't carry an anchor.Next time i may bring a 3' pipe and hammer to drive into the ground to tie up to. Kindof concerned walking through the under growth from the bank to parking because it looked like prime snake country. The ramp is fairly shallow so bring your rubber boots. The auto gate does a good job collecting your $5 launch fee to bad they don't provide some ammenities to tie your boat too while parkimg.
Still was a good day. Size of my boat is a Lowe 175 with a 115 Optimax. Since I don't know the creek and there was a lot of debris from the rain the day before I kept it slow and had no problems. I came close to 377 but stopped short about 1/2 mile.It was real muddy after the rain
Fish everytime I can!

Are the sandies getting all the way up to the 377 bridge yet? I know a few are up there but has anyone seen them REALLY up in there yet?

I've ran my 20 ft bass boat up to the bridge on many occasions. When there is nobody around, I usually plane it off and cruise about 30 mph, if boats and shore anglers are out, I just idle. I've been past 377 with my 20 fter several times too when there is enough water to get past the debris pile around the bridge columns and the left side was the only side accessible (haven't been in a while so that all might be gone now). Unfortunately, my brother was one of the ones who's prop came into contact with that concrete dam several years ago and it destroyed his stainless prop. One of the blades was ripped in two.
