Comment by 10.5" RES Sharon on February 26, 2010 at 6:01pm: I have a questions about creek fish. If the fish can't go back upstream to the lake they came from because of the overflow pipe being too high, and they can't go downstream easily because of a large amount of branches, etc that have washed into a pile, do they swim up and down the creek like a pacing animal or hide somewhere? Also, if there is nothing blocking them, will a fish swim upstream or downstream forever?

Comment by Dan Gwaltney on February 24, 2010 at 2:41pm: Thanks for starting this group, Mark. Great idea!

I like to fish anywhere I can find a wet spot, but the creeks and rivers are my favorite places. There's just something about drifting down a lazy stream, pitching crickets under the bushes! I do most of my fishing in the lake, because it is so close to home, but I usually end up finding a feeder stream to explore/exploit even when fishing there.

Comment by Derrick on February 13, 2010 at 9:23am: Just wanted to say that I have had the best times in my life, fishing creeks. Bluegill are fighters anywhere I find them, but when hooked in a creek they fight just a little harder with or without the current. I just love em.

Comment by Chris Salmon on January 29, 2010 at 3:18pm: i must agree with you Bruce about Missouri creek fishing. Some of the best creek fishing I've done around the US was in Missouri. Awesome crappies, green sunfish and numbers of bass, catfish and shad's. I'm in

Comment by Jim Gronaw on January 28, 2010 at 1:53pm: Creek panfishing is a blast! We have many ops here with the Potomac and Susquehanna drainages with redbreasts, rock bass, fallfish and others. This should be a fun group!

Comment by Bruce Condello on January 28, 2010 at 1:35pm: I LOVE fishing for panfish in creeks. There aren't many nearby, but there are some awesome creeks in Missouri that I used to fish that were loaded with bluegill and other colorful sunfish.
