Creek Fishing

[raincheck]

A little more reading should let anybody know he didn't keep them. A limit of smallmouth would be five fish on most streams, not three. Secondly, since when did this board become the governing body for all things proper? People telling others not to post certain links, telling each other how and when they are allowed to keep fish.

Terry, if you choose to keep fish and you are within the law, then have at it. If the population starts to decline I am sure changes in the regulations will be made (see Kentucky Lake Crappie). Some of you folks need to lighten up a bit!

Thanks Tim,the 3 fish limit i'm talking about is what the tournament trail i fish allows in less its a team which would be 4 then.2 from each team member.I'm having a blast with the SM and most are over 12inchs but in a tournament i fish over 8inchs is allowed because its all done by picture.Took 7 pictures last time out and all went back too fight another day.

Sounds like that creek has some decent fish in it. All creeks are different some have more trophy potential and some have better numbers. I grew up fishing Kinney and it had quality fish but I live around Lexington and fish Elkhorn now and it has great numbers. The last full day trip I took to elkhorn I fished 6 hours and caught 40 with 4 over 15 inches. In Kinney your lucky if you catch 30 in a full day but your best 3 fish from Kinney have a good shot at weighing more than your best 3 in Elkhorn. I am just talking smallies with Largemouth North Elkhorn has some hawgs and so does Kinney.
