Kayak Trip Report, Swan Creek WMA
I had 4 hours of time off that was going to expire if I didn't take soon so left work Thursday at lunch and went to Swan Creek. Beautiful day and I had the area all to myself. Found beds in several places, but the Gills had already left. I started working the buckbrush edges with the Nikko Pin Worm about 12 inches under a bobber alternating tossing a small spinner. Finally got on a pattern of using the spinner to search and when I caught a fish working the area with the Nikko slower usually catching a few more. I returned a dozen Crappie, mostly short and several Bass with nice Gill scattered everywhere. I kept half a limit and returned many, many more including numerous large Shellcrackers. The water was about a foot high for summer pool, 85 degrees with visibility of about 12 inches. Where the pipe goes under the train tracks there was a big whirlpool so they were pumping water hard trying to get the water down. Great, great afternoon on the water.
