Somewhere on Shoal creek 7/20/24


Recommended Posts

Put in somewhere popular, went up stream as I always do. I haven't been on this stretch for 20yrs.

There are mink and otter out in the evening. It was nice, I never saw anyone until I took out.

Caught a bunch of dinks in holes that should have produced some good ones, this was the best fish of the day. I'm still throwing that zman punch craw, and a #5 shad colored crank.

Never really thought of paddling up that stretch. Might have to try it sometime.

If fishing was easy it would be called catching.

It's not bad now, if the water goes down another 4 inches it might be rough. I was able to paddle up all be two or three places, even then the drag was easy

Good to know. Thanks.

I almost put a screen shot of the map on the post, I figure if people want to know they will either recognize the area as you did or take the time to send a message.

Probably better the way you did it. The creek gets too much attention as it is.

I wouldn’t even post the name of it.  The internet.   Ruining good fishing spots since inception.

I agree that the internet has ruined many a fishing spot. But since it was posted in the Shoal Creek forum it really doesn't matter. Honestly, if it hadn't been posted here, I likely wouldn't have seen it, since I only get notifications for a few posts on OAF. Even if I did see it on a generic forum thread, I would have recognized it just as quickly. I know there are others who know this location too, one in particular. I will not give up the location.
