Thread: Another Creek Day

This morning I got up early and headed to a local creek. I went further up stream than I have ever been. Flow is really low now (~20 cfs) and makes it ideal for using finesse tactics while wade fishing. I used a light action rod with 3 pound line. Despite having some line issues (knot not holding main line to leader) I laid the smack down on the fish. I had another 50 fish creek day with some quality creek Spotted Bass and Largemouth Bass. Several quality bass spit the hook. I was getting a good hook set, it sure what was happening. I ended up catching 6 species (Largemouth Bass, Spotted Bass, Shadow Bass, Longear Sunfish, Green Sunfish, and Bluegill). The most productive bait was the Niko hellgrammite. I will be bring a small canoe next time to get past the pool that stoped me. I think my Uncle will be bringing my new to me Old Town Discovery 119 next Friday. Will have to break it in. Can’t wait!
