    Scott, it's 10:00 AM Friday and I'm trying to convince myself it's warm enough to go. When I take my son, he swims on purpose. I try to find him a nice hole that shallows up downstream so if he gets in the current he can just go with it and then stand up. Still, I never get too far from him.

    Water temp may be fine, but man that is some c-o-o-o-o-l-d air right now...

    Re: creek smallmouth

    Ended up going from noon to 3 PM. Took my son, who is a novice, and my nephew, who is a beginner. I was able to hook both of them up with a couple 13-14 inchers, and my nephew with a nice 15" largemouth. They had a blast.

    I also caught about a 4 lb. cat on a nightcrawler and had a blast with a 6-7 pound drum that I let the kids take turns fighting.

    All the smallmouth we caught were in current, the deeper the better. The creek is way down, that little bit of rain we had didn't do a thing where I was (main fork).

    We had a LM 4lb 10oz out of the 23 we caught Saturday morning up on the North Fork at the Farm Stretch. Water temps was about 64 degrees.
