Donaldson Creek on Lake Barkley

Can a person have pretty good luck fishing Donaldson Creek without ever leaving the bay and venturing out onto the main lake itself?

I would appreciate it if anyone familiar with the area could offer an opinion.

Thanks

Bout everyday all day

Especially with high water over 360 no need to leave. I'll be in there Saturday and maybe Sunday.

Donalson is a great creek.........Plenty of water there, with a bunch of different options and patterns that should work.

Red eye Shad, Crank, Shakey Head. There are a couple decent creeks and maybe, just maybe enough water in the back to cover some brush.

Sounds like FUN.
