Tried the feeder creek at Harrington Park in Plano and caught Sunfish, Bluegill, and Longear. Did sight cast to several Carp lurking in the area but none wanted the spinner.
Went on to Shawnee Park in Plano and struck out! Tough place to fish with the "Buffer Zone" hampering access from the bank.
Finally closed out the morning outing with a stop at the feeder creek to Shadow Lakes in Allen. Caught a Bluegill and then had several missed strikes from more Bluegill.
PS: Quick trip to Bethany this evening gets two more fish - a little Bass and a Bluegill.
where do you catch most of your bass at bethany lakes like witch pond and what do you use?
ReplyDeleteWe catch most Bass from the Main Pond (one with a fountain and pavilion), and then the Back Pond (one that has a feeder creek that runs into it).
ReplyDeleteFor lures, usually keep Rooster Tails (1/16oz), Road Runners (1/8oz), and Senko Worms handy. Switching to whatever seems to be working that day or is least fouled by the algae.
For fishing flies, Olive Wooley Bugger, Olive Damsel Fly, White Damsel Fly, and Foam Rubbber Grasshoppers.
Recently, been catching them on an inline spinner we make... called the Wooley Rooster Martin. Uses a Rooster Tail body, Panther Martin blade, and a treble hooked dressed with an Olive Hackle.
Hope this helps.
