Almost Time For Bsc And Mill

[Geoff]

I hope I can atleast get to Mill this year, still never been. I had good luck at BSC in Jan or Feb this year finally, i'll go back, i might fish it during deer season since I hunt across the road from it.

Hit the north N parking lot on Sunday around 6pm, and headed upstream. Saw multiple large fish this trip, and they seemed less skiddish. I also believe I saw 2 otters just below the N bridge. They almost swam right by me.

I made the trip down to the parking lot before the Ranch for the first time as well. It was about 7:15pm by the time I made it down there. I saw a few big trout in the pool just down stream of the bridge. I need to go back to this spot to fish next time.

If there are Otters in that killer little creek it's doomed........what a bummer. I wonder when the season is on Otters???

Smallie..I see otters just about every time I go to bsc. I do hope you are wrong about them dooming the creek...are they really that bad?

[Geoff]

They can be. Are you sure they are otters and not muskrats? I have never seen an otter down that way and I would imagin that creek being way to small to support and otter population. muskrat and beaver yes. i see lots of them.

There have been otters in Crane creek for years and it seems to be doing fine.

I only got a quick look at them. The first thing I saw were two long bodies sliding down a riffel just upstream of me. One stopped right in front of me, popped his head up out of the water, then was out of there quick.

What parking lot do you guys have the most luck at BSC?

Otters for sure. Usually two of them, one large and the other small. I see them all the time.

Drove to the first parking lot on N on Sunday, got there at 5pm. Started working up stream, moving quickly through the first half. Caught 2 nice looking rainbow, and one small mouth about the same size. The Trout were both out of the same hole. Battled another one in close to the net, but he broke off before I could grab him. Darkness moved in alot quicker than I thought. I was up to the N bridge by 7:15, and walked the road back. This was my 6th trip to BSC since August, and I am glad I finally got some legit trout.

Sweetness. Thanks for sharing. I've never caught a smallmouth there.
