oysterk Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 @YoTone I live about 5 minutes away from Marsh, but I've heard from a few guys on boats that the park rangers are calling people off the water with a bullhorn, so I've been sticking to the banks. And since the waters still mid40s, not a lot biting from the banks haha Quote
Adam Markley Posted March 19, 2020 Posted March 19, 2020 @JediAmoeba and to think I almost took a trip up there this weekend to get away from all the craziness near Philly. Think I’ll wait a couple weeks and let things warm up a bit. Quote

YoTone Posted March 21, 2020 Posted March 21, 2020 Freakishly warm weather yesterday. Decided to join some buddies to bank fish some secret spots that's been on fire lately. Buddy caught this on a Walmart spinner, she was hugging under some timber from a beaver dam. 2 Quote
Quarry Man Posted March 22, 2020 Author Posted March 22, 2020 caught a two pounder today up at the lake house. mom was walking the dogs so I decided to walk to the dam with her, two casts on a drop shot barely moving the bait, no bites. decided to pick up my flipping jig on my ne3w rod I customized just to test the feel out, flipped right along the wall and bam 2 Uber 1 Quote
Adam Markley Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 Anyone here ever fished springton reservoir in media? Heard it’s great but illegal. Apparently on Sunday’s the fish police don’t work though. Having a tough time finding any viable spots with everything shut down Quote
YoTone Posted March 22, 2020 Posted March 22, 2020 they do work but if you go before they start patrolling.... Quote

oysterk Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 @YoTone dang that's a nice one! Lake, pond, river? Quote
Adam Markley Posted March 23, 2020 Posted March 23, 2020 Caught a nice chunk out of my backyard. Feels like cheating but I’ll take it 1 Quote

oysterk Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 @Quarry Man what's up! Yessir, fellow Marsh Creek angler. I've only caught perch in 2020 so far at MC, excited to get out there soon though! Looks like the bass fishing is picking up a bit. My PB is from Marsh Creek about a year and a half ago, a 4.5 pounder @YoTone gotcha. I've only ever accessed that cove from boat, but maybe I can find some land access too. 1 Quote

Might also go depending on the weather. It can get pretty choppy for a small lake if there's any wind. Granted you can paddle into the coves. 1 Quote

I don’t have a kayak(yet) once this stimulus check comes that could change ? Quote

I don’t have a kayak(yet) once this stimulus check comes that could change ? there's a few spot, I have never tried it. It would be a lot of walking, and minimal access. I 100% recommend a boat. I would have no problem letting you tag along, but that would violate social distancing unfortunately. For sure once it all ends. Quote
Adam Markley Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 For sure, thanks. I’m gonna hold off on marsh creek then, and maybe try French creek 1 Quote
