Sugar Creek
Tip of the week:
Techniques:
Streamers are the way to go this time of year. Fish a small streamer (Clouser Minnow, sculpin, red eye leech) slow and near the bottom.
The top water bite is slowly beginning to turn on; fish a sneaky Pete or Todd's Wiggle Minnow and hang on!
Seven-day forecast:
We bypassed spring and went straight into summer conditions. This week will be hot; roughly 16 degrees above normal. This will cause the water temperature to increase in the Creek. This will also get the metabolism of the fish to ramp up and have the fish feeding all day!
Chances of rain Tuesday through Sunday; take a rain or wading jacket with you!
