So That's Where all the Fish Went...

Stopped at a creek after work today, it was loaded with fish. Hundreds of them, and I only wandered about 200 yards of the creek.

A lot of small ones, but bigger ones mixed in. I didn't scale down and wound up playing with the fish for a couple of hours.

It was fun to watch them running around with the jig/twister in their mouth. One would drop it, another would pick it up. Step and repeat endlessly.

Caught and missed way too many to bother counting.

Largemouth, smallmouth, gills, green sunfish, crappie and 2 of the biggest rock bass I've ever caught out of this creek. Lots of carp and suckers hanging around too.

I wish I would have brought my 7 foot, 3 weight fly rod and a bunch of little flies.

I would have landed a hell of a lot more.

1/32 oz feather jig has been doing it for me in the creeks. Smallmouth everwhere from 4-10 inches, most of them in 3 feet of water or so. Acquired a couple more small jigs today. Might go find a new creek before work Saturday morning.

I should have gone today. See what the rain did to the creek levels.

Maybe tomorrow.
