Capps Report

[bferg]

Thanks to everyone for your input on my first trip to Capps. Cool place- very cool. Started at the lower bridge and went up a ways. Was fishing olive colored streamers most of the time. Didn't see a fish except for a small bass. I am assuming it is best to fish this soon after stocking? Perhaps the bucketeers have had their way up there?

Dude, I went today and slayed them! 17 to hand and many more missed! Saw Chief's son and his truck, but no Chief?

I met WoundedOne and his son at the lower access and we immediately started catching them. We caught about 25 between us. And we only fished it for about 3hrs and never did fish out any of the holes.

When you came by Ollie, I had went down to Shoal with the bait caster to hit the confluence looking for some bass. I struck gold too. Caught a 14-15 inch LM right off the get go. I then hit another hole near by that produced 3 brownies and 2 goggle eye. One other brownie that would have went about 14inches didn't quite make it to my hand. But did put on a little show none the less. Called it quits after about 30 minutes and headed back to the truck.

I told Dylan as we were coming in that I thought that was your truck. When I got back from Shoal he told me you stopped by. We saw you fishing but wasn't close enough to identify you. We went on up towards the park and worked our way back down. Nothing happing up that way. I think you worked them over pretty good.

Right on! Glad you got to make up for the Tuesday trip for Dylan.

I went back today and man the creek had been hamered with fishing pressure! Everyone must have had the same thought as me thinking no one else would be there! I Managed to land 9 today in about 3-4 hours. Biggest being around 14" and the rest being all pretty small stockers. I caught mine all on two different colors: Ginger and a crawdad pattern, both jigs.

Went back today with another friend of mine who wanted to go pretty bad. I say that because I was thinking it was really cold out!!! Went anyways and was glad I did. He caught 2 right off the bat with his 2 first casts and then I caught my first one. We fished for a total of three hours and he caught 8 and I caught 6. All stockers, but decent size none the less. We had two doubles with the last fish being a double for us both and a good way to end the day fishing. Caught most of them on brown/olive or just plain olive.
