Anybody Been Lately?

Heading up to Crooked Creek on Sunday. Anyone fished there lately? Going to go from the slab down to the hwy. 14 bridge. I'll post how things go.

Thanks,

Report from 5/4 trip:

Water was flowing pretty good (150 cfs) at the slab and height was 11.5 ft. The west side of the slab had been washed out by the extreme flooding. The power of mother nature is pretty amazing. We caught between the two of us 41 fish, mostly smallies, with really no size to any of them. Maybe 14" being the largest and they were almost all taken on grubs. We did catch two rainbow trout just around the corner from the slab, so that was kind of weird and a first for me. I guess they had migrated up from the White River's high waters. I was reeling in a smallie when I saw another larger fish that I thought was a smallie trying to steal the bait out of my fish's mouth. I told my buddy to throw in there and he instantly hooked up with about a 14" trout, so that was pretty cool.

Only other info I have to pass along is if anybody is missing a tan colored dog, she may be in the middle of town. We had a pup follow us the entire 2.5 miles and don't know where she went when we made it to the city park.

If anyone has any info on a reasonably close take out after the Hwy. 14 bridge, I would really appreciate it. I would like to fish down that way because it probably doesn't get the traffic that the slab to the city park sees.

Thanks,

Kevin
