    Default Crooked Creek


    This past Monday I was in north Arkansas for work. As I usually do, I brought a spining rod and a couple of my favorite creek smallmouth baits. So, I hiked about 3 miles upstream of the AGFC Fred Berry Education Center on Crooked Creek. The creek was really low but I did manage to find some fish in a couple of deeper riffles and holes this far up river. Here are a couple pictures of some of the fish I caught. I caught about 20 smallmouth, ozark bass, and green sunfish. Unfortunatly my battereis died after about 5 pictures. Note the baits, The first one (YUM crawbug) is my secret weapon on these fiesty little fish. The secound is a getzit, which most folks know about. I prefer green pumkin with orange fleck for both of them. IF you have not fished this creek, I highly recommend it. The Spring time and early summer is the best time of the year. thanks for looking.

    Thanks for the pics. Sure is some pretty fish and water up there.
    Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

    One of my absolute favorite fish and the bonus is they live in the prettiest parts of our state.

    That could be arranged on a float trip if you want.
