Fished Bethany Creek Park and worked the Brown Damsel Fly Variant. Water was crystal clear and could see little, medium, and Bruiser Bass cruising the canal. Had several go for the fishing fly but none were hooked solid. Even had one that went easily over 4 pounds take the fishing fly twice. Bottomline: A lot of frustration seeing them strike without one landed.
Shifted over to Bethany Lakes and noted several spawning beds had been worked over with a cast net. Looks like that area is done this spawning season. (Note: Pole and line fishing is the only leqal means to fish in a community lake).
Not wanting to leave without catching anything, decided to fish the canal with a White Damsel Fly in Size 10. Caught a Bluegill and a Sunfish!
Next round, may need to shift over to trying to catch the Bruiser Koi that are lurking in the Main Pond for now.

I enjoy your blog. Thanks for posting. Where is the Allen Station Dam?
ReplyDeleteHi Candace W.,
DeleteThanks for checking out our blog; appreciate the support.
Allen Station Dam is located just off of Exchange Parkway. Here is a link to Google Maps that shows its location. When you get there, look for a Memorial Sign and a small parking area behind the warehouses. Then, follow the walkway to the Dam.
Note: Scroll down the list of places to fish on the left, Allen Station Dam is listed about midway down the list.
