Thread: Eagle Creek - 5/25

Holiday happiness....

Nice catch. I caught my limit the other day out there, all from ONE tree. A couple bass fisherman moving by said "a little late for crappie isn't it?". I just smiled!

great catch Brian. Wish I still had my Eagle creek boat.

Nice bunch of crappie... Congrats on the catch!

You sure can catch those crappies! Your outfit is ideal for that lake. I have always said that eagle creek is a sleeper lake as it doesn't get that much pressure for its size and location. I landed a 20 lb + catfish on your lake this am pitching a 1/16 oz jig under docks for crappie but only managed 3 or 4 total and a lot of white bass.

Nice catch. Wish I could find some crappie like that. How deep were they?

Sitting out over some brush in 12'-15' of water. School was riding high in some spots intercepting jigs at the 8'-10' level on the drop many times. Lots of fish going shallower to spawn right now also around here.

I like to fish the drop off the flat by the sailboat bouy. The drop is so steep, sometimes jig gets stuck on edge of it.

Caught a 4lb striper out there yesterday on a tiny jig. Also caught something huge, twice. Snapped the 4lb test instantly both times, second time the bobber went out of sight faster than I've ever seen.. I also broke a pole for the first time ever yesterday, with a tree fish lol! Going back to my hole today with a couple cat fishing poles to see if I can't find the monster. I've never seen so many eating size crappie jumping out of the water before.

What dose it cost to launch at ramp. It used to be 2.00 at the gate.
