    Creeks in Louisville area

    Does anyone know of any creeks that hold a good amount of chubs or shad in the louisville area that they wouldnt mind sharing. I just bought a new cast net and would like to get out and use it

    Floyd's Fork runs through a large part of eastern Jefferson Co.

    never been able to catch a chub in a cast net, use hook and line in the fast current seems, I usually use something like a sabiki rig, most creeks in the area do hold suckers though, and craw fish, catch them in the early morning hours in creeks, or you can turn over rocks.

    I see some kind of small fish in an easily accessible creek in the J-town industrial park. Do a Google map search for Grassland Drive. At the end of this street is the entrance to part of a walking trail that the City of Jeffersontown has built. There's a creek that feeds Chenoweth Run across the second bridge from the start of the trail. I couldn't tell you if they're chubs or not, but I've seen plenty of them in the creek along the trail.

    I have used a saine in Ceder Creek forever and its only about 5' wide. It helps to have a partner but can be done alone (trust me). It is absolutely great for crawdads. Im not 100% what a creek chub is but I frequently catch many small schools of fish, anywhere from 2-4 inches. I use them all the time along with crawdads for fishing my pond. I can usually catch a couple dozen of either in about 10-15 minutes. I like to tear the pincers off the daddys so they dont grab on to stuff.
