Cross Creek

You're thought are headed in the right direction! The lake has been dead for the last couple of years. The county has no interest in it and with no trout neither does the fish commission. Some say its the gas people I believe some of it is, some because no one has been there to enforce the rules and any money that does go into the lake is for the speaical interest people not fishermen.

It's certainly not the dead sea...been there a few times last couple weeks...lake is loaded with fish...the county not caring? Not caring about what? do you want them to catch and load them in your cooler? They are doing a great job...(although that trail plan bothers me but who cares about me it's not just "my" lake) the commission not bothering fisherman like they did in the eighties?...good...that was an annoyance...They have done a great job as well to make sure we have fish to catch. Make sure we can launch or fish and leave us alone...Geez eppy I thought you loved Dutch Fork this place is as easy as it gets....this lake has way more fish than dutch fork ever had...very fertile and well populated. AND, more diverse. Yeah, no tiger muskies or trout but, you ever catch a tiger at dutch fork? I doubt it if youre complaining this lake is the dead sea. I'll be glad to meet you and show you some productive spots no kidding I remember old posts from you 

Meat Ball im in.

Wonder how many fish are in those trucks going pass my house on Rt 50? I'm not saying the gas people are responsible for the problems at the lake but there has been a definite change since they showed up, 24/7

No clue about cross creek but with this warmer weather the bass should be more active, and they are going to want to get fat so I would try some bigger baits, would be what I would throw if I was going

Fish Commission surveys show what's there...new report to be released soon. Check it out, lake is full of fish.

Job well done!! I'm glad to someone is still having luck over there.Been debating about going over the pass few days but after selling my boat just can't get interested enough. Once again good job!

Fished cross creek plenty of times and I've usually done pretty well, some days better than others but its hardly a dead sea. Anybody ever ice fish out there??

Yea doesnt look like a good winter for ice fishing, but if we ever do get safe ice i planned on hitting cross creek. Was gonna try and hit near the new launch/ dock they put in this year. Did well there in open water on crappie, bass and a stray walleye.

Not sure about bait shops on that side, i doubt it

Meat Ball YOU GOT MAIL

cast and blast nice...weird, very little bird action around the lake..real quiet ..lone stalker blue herons is all ive seen...wife even mentioned wheres the birds

Pyma duck season is out.. Might hit lake Arthur......

 Only checked M/C arm & she is frozen over. No ice fishermen out though. Most birds prob. go to creeks or river to roost when not feedin' round this way. Merry New Year!
 
crappy

Report was in Oberver a couple of weeks ago. Said a lot of fish I probabie just don't know how to fish it. On the brite side Meat Ball said he was going to give me lessons. How about Meat Ball?
