I Was at Deer Creek this afternoon and managed to hook four in about 3 hours one was about 13" the rest were on the small side about 7 or 8", but it looks like it could turn on soon. I was at the upper end of the lake close to the old Bridge area. I hope this is a good sign that the rest of those fishies will be along soon. I would like it if everybody would keep me informed of the action down there, Thanks Jeewizz

Fished Delaware Lake on the north end yeaterday from about 4 to 9 pm. I got nothing. The water was showing on the Lorance GPS at 57 in the coves. Ridiculous. Where are the fish? This time last year with all the bad weather and all I was slamming them. Saugeyes, Crappie, Bass. What the heck is going on? I think there are more Gillnets up than the ODNR know about. I really don't think that those boys had only one net up in one area. I think that the law enforcement people should look at the other areas too.

White twitertails or roostertails or small crankbaits, usually anthing white is good. Dont know about fishing from a boat I always fish the creek. The w/b and crappie will run up the creek when they spawn in the spring, I'm sure there are some w/b that spawn in that lake and if you could find them they should hit just about any small bait. I think there are more crappie that spawn in the lake than w/b so if you are fishing the lake i would concentrate on the coves and look for brush piles for crappie.
