Fishing out of Barnett’s Creek on a day when the bite was tough. I changed baits often & covered a lot of water. It was not until a put I rigged up a a Mr. Crappie Joker that the fish began to bite. I rigged the plastic on a 1/32 oz. jighead & betts spinner. I had to fish it slow, but the crappie & white perch would hit it hard!

Caught several crappie, two largemouth bass, a blue gill, and a white perch. One of the crappie measured 12 inches. I used the crappie magnet on a 1/32 oz. Jig head on a small betts spinner. I caught these fish in the Carolina Club Marina.

I caught 18 fish altogether with all of them being bass or yellow perch! I had another half dozen or so that got away because I couldn’t get a hook into them. I used only two baits; Googan Squad micro zinger in a sexy shad color and a Dynamic Lures’ Micro Spinner Bait, Orange/Gold in color. They were hitting these two spinners pretty consistently! The two spinners in the comments are the two that were hot baits!!

I was fishing Barnett’s Creek using mostly micro spinner baits. Caught around 10 yellow & white perch on a Johnson’s Beatle spin rigged with a crappie magnet. I switched to an H&H Lure Company, //16 oz. Cutie spin. I had several fish to crush this bait, especially a bass weighing a little over 2lbs!

I had to go catch a birthday bass to keep tradition alive! We ended up catching over 30 bass throwing a wacky rigged senko with a #1 VMC wacky worm hook.

Fishing Barnett’s Creek recently, from around 8:30am-2:30pm. I caught about 15 fish altogether with the majority consisting mostly of large mouth bass. In addition to the bass, I did catch a few few small yellow perch and a blue gill. The prize catch of the day was a puppy drum. I threw a lot of different baits on this day, but everything I caught was on a beetle spin rigged with a split tail black & chartreuse crappie magnet on a 1/32 jig head. I have attached pictures of the biggest fish.
