Gold Creek 10-3

[ceb]

Well the morning started off just as expected after not looking at the boat for a few months...Ground wire on the trailer lights was rusted off. Crankin' battery was dead. But I wasn't letting it get me down today... Got some rosies and shiners from Dano and headed towards the pool just a tad after daylight. Took me 30 minutes to get the poles in the water with all the crappie and catfish jumpin' in the boat. Ended up cullin' out a limit of 20 around noon. Most keepers were 10" inch fish. Caught 'em 7-10' deep on different brushpiles in the pool. They were hangin' pretty tight to the brush for most of the morning. I didn't try the creek today, but I figure there's some bigger fish in the creek workin' their way towards the pool. Will get a pic tomorrow...

Ceb glad you were able to get out and do some fishing. If you are in Jonesboro working again give me a shout and we will try to find a fwe around Batesville.

Ceb, when y'all refer to "the pool", are you talking about Wilhemina Cove?

[ceb]

Yep. The pool is the cove.

Here's a quick pic I snapped before they went under the knife. Sorry for the date...stupid camera.



Here's a GE image of the pool with a few good brushpiles marked.

Chris - good to see you on the board again and back on the water, and as always...you get 'em. Nice fish. Tried the Little Maumelle Sunday morning. Not a bite. Picked up the beginnings of some bait fish running at the mouth of the river on the depth finder. Should pick up the next couple of weeks I would think.

Aww...Goocher flaked out on me. After not hearin' from him by 10am, I figured that he needed all the beauty rest he could get...:D

Hey SS, did you fish today? Looks like I'll be back out there Wednesday afternoon.

And Joe, looks like the river is trying to get back to normal. It's been a tough summer as far as flows go. It should get right within the next couple weeks, but looks like I'll be spending my weekends on Cane Creek.
