Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted January 31, 2012 Root Admin Posted January 31, 2012 Put in at Twin Bridges at noonish and headed up the Spring. Went about a mile and fished a cut down the bank staying in 6-9 feet of water. This is a bib flat where the river isn't more than 12 feet deep all the way across. Paul, a friend who lives in Neosho, has been catching a lot of whites there and other spots the last 2 weeks. But nothing. Wind was blowing upstream and it was tough fishing. Went on up and fish the mouth of a slew on the right side (east) and caught 9 whites in 4 passes. The wind picked up so we headed up past the old bridge pilons and tried up there- out of the wind kinda but didn't do any good on whites but did catch 4 black bass, small, on the east bank. Went back down and tried the flat again but the wind was soo tough- we quit early. I caught most of my while DRAGGING my swimming minnow on the bottom.
ollie Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 Already finding some on Spring huh? I guess with this weather it may heat up earlier than usual this year. "you can always beat the keeper, but you can never beat the post" There are only three things in life that are certain : death, taxes, and the wind blowing at Capps Creek!
