floyds fork report

[usmc_0311_hunter]

i hit the main bridge off of seatonville rd and the water was high and the current was swift. the water was a little bit murky but im sure it will clear up soon with dry weather ahead. as i headed upstream i started throwing my rapala countdown 3 perch lure and landed 4 small SM and 2 very colorfull sunfish. well i lost my favorite lure in a tree go figureso then i tried my black spining rooster tail with no luck. i switched to a chartrues buzz bait and on my first cast i landed a 12 in smallie but i couldnt get my buzzbait to stay on top of the water so i tied on a spinner bait. i caught one small sm on it. With only 1 bend left before i got back to the bridge i tried a small green and orange rattle trap and **** snag. No wait this is a fish holy cow yehaww it was a very nice smallie that really toped off my day. oh yea i also tried a white twister tail for a while but i only caught one small crappie. i got there at about 630 wich is LATER than i like i probally went 3/4 a mile or so. i saw a huge owl and 2 deer walking threw the water i love the wildlife and seclusion that floyds fork has to offer. happy fishing and keep the reports coming

Thx for the report .I am wanting to start doing some stream fishing and was wondering if there is very good places to park or have to walk some to get to there, Also what would be some good lures to use. Thx for any info that you are willing to give me.Also seen on here that elkorn was good to fish too. Just have to find some place to walk to it too. Thx.

i just recently started fishing floyds fork but its alot of fun some days are better than others as it is anywhere but it can produce 20in+ sm!! i have caught alot of sm between 11 an 15in i landed one today that was 17in. i have always fished off of seatonvile rd i live in jtown so i take billtown to seatonville rd then i park right next to the second bridge you come to on the right theres a big area you can pull off to park. i like wading upstream and i catch most my sm in about waist deep water i always cast nect to the weeds that hold fish and the pools of water at the end of the rapids along down trees and any cover. i have always used twister tails on jig heads at other places but i find that here they hit mostly on small cranks that imitate crawfish and bounce around off of the bottom i like the green/orange rapalas when the waters alitle merky and the tan/orange when its clear the small rapala crawdad and grasshoper cranks work great.sometimes a buzzbait or poper will produce smallies and rooster tails will catch panfish and some smallies. i havent yet tried redworms but i bet if you had some red worms and lite split shot and let it roll into the holes threw the rapids you would probly ccatch alot of fish? i have heard the bells mill rd area is good also but its in mt washington. and i have heard that otter creek is an awesome creek but i have yet to fish it let me know how you do or if you wanna go wade the fork
