Creek Fishing? Lake? - 12/30/21 05:13 PM
New yak angler here -
I have taken out my yak once and itching to go again. Live in Denton, thinking of paddling up a creek (that is almost a old joke in the making) and wondering what is on the bite in Jan? Hickory Creek off Lake Lewisville is super close to me. I can travel a little to do this - up to an hour or two I guess.
I have read the Crappie and Sand Bass will start running up in late Feb or early Mar, depending on water temp. Thinking the creeks or inlets will shelter me from the wind (on windy days).
Is this a waste of my time to try to fish the feeder creeks right now?
Should I focus on the inlets? 50-200 yards out?
Maybe I should go look for carp? and hit the feeders when the temps change...?
Suggestions are welcomed and thanks in advance.
