I'll give Jack another call tonight and see what it looks like then post a report





mgolf92 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/3/2008 1:54:47 PM)

Thanks, that would be great.




mgolf92 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/3/2008 3:19:24 PM)

The stream gauge shows that oil has crested, and is now dropping....




1roadking -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 6:56:44 PM)

Guys
Fished it today Sat. 5/3 from 6:30 AM till noon and could not even get a bump. Fished Miller Farm area fairly high fast and brown. Saw a spinning guy get a couple on roster tail. No top water action that I could see.
Good Luck to all and have fun.




T.T. -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 7:38:52 PM)

Thanks.  I've got my new wading shoes done up with shiny sheet screws, all set to go.  We'll need all the traction we can get.

Fly-boys, pack your streamers.  Sounds like we'll need them.

And don't forget your appetite....  I just prepared 6 pounds of shrimp




mgolf92 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 8:18:30 PM)

T.T.  I've got the sink tips and streamer all lined up....I think she'll be down quite a bit by tomorrow though...




T.T. -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 8:44:59 PM)

Either way, it'll be a good time.  Should be cool and dry, so a good day should be had.


"6 pounds of shrimp"

Mmmmmmm. 

Packing shrimp and 'slaw, we'll have a full tank of gas, and we'll be wearing sunglasses.  We're on a mission from God. [:D]




beerman -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 9:08:48 PM)

Here is a USGS chart for Oil Creek:

I may not arrive at Petroleum Center until noon, I'll be bringing pop + water.  Also, my buddy Dallas will not be able to attend this year because of the flu.  So I'm bringing paper plates, plastic utensils and napkins. 




egg sac -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 10:17:11 PM)

Well Skip i see your 6 lbs of shrimp and raise ya 8lbs of wings....lol




Skip16503 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/3/2008 11:02:50 PM)

Just so there is a Thermos in your car I'll fold  LOL




CREEKTROLL3 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/4/2008 7:59:58 AM)

Sorry guy's due to family obligations I'm not going to be able to attend. Maybe sometime I'll be able to attend. GOODLUCK and be SAFE!!!




Bughawk -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/4/2008 9:18:40 PM)

Egg Sac,

Thanks for organizing this year's outing.  I had a great time.  Thanks for all who provide the great food and excellent conversation.  It was good to met a few new folks and see some people I had not seen for quite awhile.  The fishing was not so great, with the water being high, but still I really enjoyed the time.  Special thanks to Jeremy for the tying tips and Dano for all the advice on everything from tying to casting.  I hope everyone made it home OK.  I missed 5 deer.  Thank goodness they were fast and I have good brakes.

Good fishing to all and see you next year.




Skip16503 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/4/2008 10:09:09 PM)

I had a great time too ....  Great to see some old faces and meet some new guys....

We stopped at a little Native stream after we left and I managed to land one HUGE Brookie  3"  WOW





Mikastorm -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing (5/4/2008 11:02:51 PM)

Great meating everyone.
                                 John (ps will post pix of rod tomorrow)














jlh42581 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/5/2008 6:37:27 AM)

Was nice to meet all you guys as well, like I said, your welcome to come fish here anytime. If you have any tying questions, just drop me an email.

I got home about 6pm, rushed to get the boat to the lake. Backed it in, forgot the plug, almost sank it. Got the water pumped out and headed out to a drop off. Started fishing a big huge worm on a carolina rig and landed two REALLY nice largemouths.

Hey Jack, let me know if that minnow works out for you.

Ill put our pics up tonight.




fisherofmen376 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/5/2008 10:27:28 AM)

Hey guys,
This is repetitive, but I also wanted to say thanks.  The food was insanely good.  I woke up this morning and thought for sure I had turned into a piece of sausage after eating all that food!
Special thanks to Indisguiz for showing em a few things on the fly rod.  That was the best 10 inch rainbow I ever caught!
Though the fishing was on the fritz, I am glad to have met you all and look forward to fishing (and eating) together in the future.  I will email the pics to Bughawk so he can post them tomorrow.  Peace,
Alex




mgolf92 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/5/2008 3:46:00 PM)

Guy's it was nice to meet everyone, even though that's about all that I was able to do.  Unfortunatly my dad had to get back to Maryland and he had to get me home to Erie first.  Bughawk, I think that I just missed you coming in as we were leaving.  Glad to hear that some fish were eventually caught, because it was looking a little bleak.   

Mike




flyfishindave -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/5/2008 8:21:12 PM)

eggsack great job organizing the outing great food & best of all
meeting a great bunch of fishermen. I had only met a few of
the people there before but it was a great time & anyone coming
south to fish the little J or spring creek let me know & I will do what
I can to show you around & fish with you. I have a small camp on
spring creek & I am there a lot.
     good luck to all &  may the fishing be great.




jlh42581 -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/6/2008 12:16:07 PM)

Ill make sure to put them up tonight. Im sorry, I cant stay off the water long enough to do anything after work.

I admit... im a fishing junkie [:(]

I know one thing, if anyone walked away hungry youre foolish because everything was EXCELLENT and there was enough to feed an army. Who brought the venison sticks? They ROCKED!

Yo!  That samich was tha BOMB!!!  Only thang missing wuz a Guinness Stout.  There's always the One Fly...

Fun times, ya'll!!!!  Too bad the stream was mocha.  We would've had one hell of a time with all those 'boos.[;)]   As it was, the day sure was nicer than the one before it.  There were plenty of new and old friends, tons of fishing talk, and mountains of great food!  Thanks for the donations! 

The hand-off.

See you'z guyz next year for sure!  I vow to land a trout on that water with my Dad's 'boo!





indsguiz -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/6/2008 11:44:17 PM)

Thanks to Egg for getting the show together.  John, you are welcome!  Fisherofmen, you did the work I just helped out a little. Special thanks to all who brought the food.  Jeremy, yes the minnow worked really well, really, really well.  Heavily weighted, and fished deep in the Little J just below Ironville + a 14 " brown and a 17" brown that actually chased the thing through the fast water and smashed it!  Now if you just add that little bit of pink and some green in with the black and I think we have ourselves a winner.   Maybe make a smaller version for Spring Creek and the Bald Eagle.  I'll take a dozen in different sizes.
     Hope to see you all at the One Fly!

Jack,
When I get a free moment I will tie you some, Ill let you know.




egg sac -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/7/2008 7:28:17 PM)

No need to thank me guys..Its everyone showing up that makes it special. All I did was remind others it was that time of year again. Since the first outing years ago only 3 have made it to every one of them Dano, Beerman and myself. If I would not have gotten this rolling one of the other 2 would have.Just wish more would start showing up as they have zero clue what they are missing out on.




flyfishindave -> RE: Annual Oil creek outing, gobies only (5/7/2008 7:40:36 PM)

just wanted to let you know I brought the venison sticks
& I am glad they were liked
