bait collecting update (were did all the bait go?)

[texasteatony]

the wife and I stopped out to see RICK @ ATAC
our local aquaculture man, we had to get a new dip net.
the creek we fished was just out side of Lebanon Ohio
the small run off drains to Turtle Creek about 1/2 mile away heading south.
we caught 1 crawdad with the net, water was full of leafs real bad very hard to see.
pole and line and Wax worm was the trick.
we caught
1 -shiner Luxilus chrysocephalus about 5" long
1 -green sunfish Lepomis cyanellus about 4" long
6 -chubs Semotilus atromaculatus from 3" to 9" long
the biggest chub did'nt make it hook was to deep and to small.


It was a nice cool day for fishing maybe next week the leaves will be out of the creek.

I have been catching some nice suckers about 12-16 inches out of White Oak as well as a lot of skip jack out of the Ohio. I have not tried my other holes yet. We need a nice rain to get the water levels back up in some of these rivers and creeks and hopefully move some fish around.

i would like to see a 3 day slow long rain
here in warren county.

when the water starts cooling down the bait fish are not going all be in the same spots in the warmer months
