Caught a fatso really nice largemouth in 4-5 foot of water close to shore on a rooster tail, SET HER Back maybe she'll make a few more soon.

Are the sandies in Denton creek yet? Where is the "hole" everyone talks about?
I don't always fish for sand bass, but when I do, I fish for them in a horrifyingly violet manner

Take Centerville til it ends at Firewheel. Turn right on Firewheel as if your going to Rowlette. As soon as you cross over the bridge (Firewheel bridge) you will need to take a right and jump the curb. You will see the parking spots and the creek. Walk left down the creek to reach the hell hole.

What is firewheel bridge? centerville and rowlett rd? Yes. --------------------------------- Todays Report: Cold, but productive as usual I told my client for the day I was 50/50 it would be worth fishing due to the cold front and the Air Pressure was all out of wack and super high.... Dropping way to fast. He said lets try it....So away we went!  So anyways, we waited till the coldness burned off and hit the water at 10 am or so. Every pocket we hit in the creek had schools of fish but we would only pick out 2-3 per pocket and the fish would spook. So we had to move a lot. If we laied of the pockets for 10-15 mins and went back, we would pull out another 1-2 fish. 2-5 ft of water was what I was looking for. If I coulnt see the bottom, there were fish there... Crankbaits in minnow colors and fluke and bobber were the go to baits for the day. We saw lots of sandies moving upstream where we were, mostly males with 10 percent being females. So, I would say it time to hit the creeks. I would be very surprised though, if the Hell Hole produces fish tomorrow. Good luck on that. I dont think they are up there in numbers yet, but, they show up when they want to. We had a small False Run with the warmer rain a few weeks ago, but those fish are already caught out of there.  Tally was 30-35 sandies and keeper crappie. -Tomorrow I am solo so I'll see what I can really pull out of there.

Welcome. We had a big rush of sandies last night. A hole that was void of fish yesterday was full today. Took Jonathan to the SSSL today at. Threw some minnows at them on the bottom with a small split shot. The first hole we stopped at produced 15 keepers in 30 mins. Second Hole produced 10-15 keepers in 20 mins. Third hole produced 60+ keepers within an hour and a half. We went through 1/4 of minnows (usually I go through 1/2 per person). They were even eating dead minnows, so sometimes we could catch 3-4 fish on the same minnow. There are sweet spots in the creek systems that will hold fish all day long. The fish in the pocket we were fishing today, were moving with the shade. Like I said before, fish the shade. caught them in 2.5- 4ft of water. Left them biting.... 2 Man-Limit of Sand Bass   Fishing is outstanding right now boys and girls. Book a trip and I promise you, your arm will be sore later that night from these great fighting fish! If you cant walk the banks, we can take the 19ft center console up a creek as well ( Rowlett Creek is not the only creek I fish at ). Sit & Fish or Walk & Fish, your pick. $75 per person. No minimum this year. GoPro Video will be uploaded if I get bored enough to edit it. Click Here to Book a Trip <--------

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach
