I went out to Walnut Creek Saturday for some fishing. We started out near the dam around some of the fishing jetties. The fishing seemed a little slow and the wind didn’t help much either. I caught a couple decent fish on black/blue flake Venom Salty Slings (senko like bait). I caught my second largest bass (15.25″) of the day on Eakins Jig with Paca Chunk Trailer. I caught it near the south end of the lake jigging around some of the timber. Action seemed really slow down that way so I finished out the day fishing points near the dam. I most of the fish I was catching were in 8to 10 feet of water. With the wind I decided the only way I could effectively fish was with a carolina rig. I immediately started getting bites. I caught a couple back to back in the 15″ range. I caught the biggest bass of the day near the outlet structure. It was 16.75″. All of those fish were caught on a black/blue Venom Hallow Hog. It is a lot like a brush hog, but has a hollow body. I even caught a bass in about 14 feet of water on drop shot rigged with a Strike King 3X worm. Overall it wasn’t a bad day on the lake. The bite was a little slow, but it appears the lake if very heavily pressured. I would like to go back sometime when the wind isn’t blowing so hard.
