gold creek ramp

just heads up about work over at the bridge and debri in the water.i contacted matt and matt at the g&fish Monday morning about greg hitting his prop.they contacted the work crews and today they reached back out from the temporary dike to scrape up loose chunks.they should have got it all but are going to follow up with long boom. everyone should be fine it was 30'- 40' from side of ramp but I am still cautioning folks to not back up 30' towards that bridge.no one usually does ,it was a fluke,luck was not there .greg sorry about the trouble cause they had just pulled that dike back thurs and fri.also sorry I didn't call you back two guys broke the ice her at 1pm.surely you would have done better her than at beaverfork,by the way they love pink minnows there.
the ice here today was only 1/2 inch and thinner not bad but looked wicked after daylight odd angles and crystally looking layers.need to get back in my pictures,ill get a picture of a 2 3/4 lber I caught this past week with 11 other good fish.
didn't get to check with a couple boats but 2 I talked to caught 3 each but they were slabs.`
ill also tell you why I don't post much any more,for crowd control.you know word of mouth travels fast enough,and everybody knows how newbies want to come sit right by you learn what your doing,then they come back,don't work, and sittin on your hotspots consistently days and tell everyone about it.well ok ok cool cool cool,but just like the crowds too many people,tempers flaring and not enough fish being caught.too much disturbance and nobody catches fish.not too many people come back for steady business, not just 1 weekend busy then nothing.id rather be steady.i have mellowed I just sit back and watch:biggrin
G&F will be in here to sonar under and around the bridge to make sure they got the depths.also ill pass n they are coming back in here for netting 150-200 crappie for in house spawning to and rereleased.also 150-200 redear for our nursery pond.i hope I explained that right or Matt can correct me please. I was just always complaining they would net them some wheres else on the lake but I was told they would all be brought back here.i hope so then that would be good.the creek and the pool somewhat hurting from the bridgework last season then more this season.
Matt you know where we saw that dike on this side of the creek.they said that's where there leaving it,got to be 20' further out in the water.do you have any scale or fancy google measurments to be able to tell?was that problem addressed? thanks dan.

You are correct Dan. The head engineer over this project with the Highway Department said they would be done sometime in March to April and that they would make sure no big rocks were left in the shallow areas. areas. You are slap correct about the culling if fish. Normally we would collect the crappie and just put them in the nursery pond. This year we will be conducting a study looking at how effective our crappie stockings are through the nursery pond. To do this, the crappie need to be spawned at a hatchery so that we can batch mark them with (OTC) a bio marker at the hatchery. Yhus can nit be done in the nursery pond. Then we will stock the 200,000 marked fingerings through the nursery pond canal. In following years we will be able to look at a crappies otolith (ear bone) and determine if it was stocked or naturally produced in the lake. Pretty important information for a fish biologist. We will also be collected redear for production in the nursery pond.

I just reread this post. Sorry about all if the typos. My big fingers make typing on the phone hard.

Thanks for the update Dan.

Thanks for the info Dano. I will see you soon my friend!!!

thanks Dano!!!!

Thanks for the update Dan. I will be glad when the highway construction team completes the work and gets out of our crappie hole.
Good stuff on the 2 3/4 lber! Nice slab, you catch big ones all the time, but that had to even get you a little pumped.

Good update Dano! Thanks!

Appreciate the update Danno! Can't wait till everything stabilizes and gets back to less distractions and more focus on pulling them slabs out! ))

thanks Danno and Matt for the updates on the pothole
