Gold Creek report

I am out of town right now. I will speak with the game wardens tomorrow. I know they have already visited Caney and left some people with tickets.

Better yet, feel free to call the stop poaching hot line as you witness the violation. This number can also be found on the back of your hunting and fishing licence. This is more effective than me telling Enforcement a day or so later.

thanks for the info Matt.

We had a decent couple of hrs this afternoon. Caught several but only kept 6 that were 12"-13". Caught 'em in the pads and weeds. 8"-12" deep. Chartreuse with a 1/16 oz pink head.

Yeah the fish are there, it's just being honest and keeping only legal fish. I fished all day last week and caught a lot of fish but only eight keepers. Let's do the right thing guys. Also it's not a reason to open up a ninety horse and push people on tree tops in gold creek. Guy in the Blue Lowe to being more specific. Bald head with a little beard. My Boat started leaking after bouncing on a stump a few times.

I did observe some short fish being kept on the iron footbridge. told them about it too but didn't seem to phase them....also heard about someone up there with just a trolling motor doing some dock...blocking... another reason im putting out info..because those who wish they could keep the crappie to themselves and who overfish, and get greedy and rude..

I could be wrong though. I got 2 more keepers at Adams lake for a total of 4 keepers for the day. On another note I hit something with my lower unit in the boat lane. Watch out & be safe.

Headed to the old oxbows between Lee and St. Francis county. Hopefully will have some good picks soon!

Made it to the oxbows and the gar were in full force. Found a few holding tight to cover. It's getting close before the bite pics up.Attachment 250966Attachment 250966Attachment 250967 This fish was pretty chunky and could not fit in the measuring tool.

If you have a improper measuring tool throw him back. He has to fit proper to be a take home fish

Your right about that, I'm glad these fish was over 10 and was not caught at Conway. Only stuck it in the measuring tool to show how fat the fish was.

just to be sure, I happen to have a blue lowe with yamaha 90 horse but I have NOT fished Conway yet this year but will soon, got a lil beard but IVE GOT ALL MY HAIR!!!!!!!!:biggrin
