Went to Wallace creek this morning. The specs have moved in. Caught 3 keepers (21, 20, 15in), and a pup. Missed 4 other nice specs too. Found them on the banks in about 5ft of water.

what were you throwing at them? I am trying to go out tomorrow morning, I was thinking Freemans creek further south on the icw.

They are always nice ones when you miss em!

started off with a 4in savage 3d shrimp, then switch to mirro-o paddle tail with 1/4oz jig head........switched to 1/8 to slow the fall and started hooking up better. think the chartreuse tail on the paddle tail is what they were relating to. as soon as I switched to that paddle tail, I was getting bit almost ever cast.

still finding them there.........went out last night for a couple hours just before dark. not sure why, but just missing fish left and right lately. anyways, missed a HUGE spec (like 6-7lbs) right at the boat last night. brought her to the surface and saw how big she was and like a rookie, got too excited and tried to flip her in the boat instead of lipping her.....line didn't like that idea..... oh well, another fish story about "the one that got away". I wish I had a pic for you all. definitely would have been by far my personal best.

For you land based guys, this is your oppurtunity. You are going to be able to walk the boat decks up and down Wallace Creek this weekend so come on out and get it!

You missed your only chance, those big ones will be gone after all the pressure this weekend.

On base?////

This is becoming comical, you tried to lip a trout??

Nope, it tried flipping it in the boat which unless I know it's a fish over 5 pounds I always do. I've also lipped more than my fare share of specks. They aren't gonna hurt you... Unless maybe you have tender hands.

 

[fuhrer48]

If its my only sure way im getting the fish in the boat. Ill lip 5+lb specks any day of the week.

 

[fuhrer48]

NCfishingking every inch of shoreline surrounding wallace is the base

I just fished the whole place without a bite, saw some netters leaving at first light the morning , maybe just a coincidence though

 

[RikkyG]

Yes I will flip any trout under 3lbs, anything over that goes into the net or grab it by the top of the shoulders. Most people on this site never see a 5+lb trout so why try to flip it when you only see very few in your life? Not trying to rain on anyone's parade, just hate when people blow up spots on forums.
Tight lines or something like that....
