I finally got to Deer Creek this past Sunday. Wind was blowing all day but never so cold I got off the water from the cold.
I fished the State Park area over by the inlet and got a big zippo for 3.5 Hours. I moved down the road to the State Park by the island. I fished there 3 more hours and caught 7. At least I didn't get skunked.
The thing that worked the best was being out over 70' of water and using a type 3 sink line. I was trolling at almost two MPH so you can see I was moving but nothing else was working.
The most effective fly was a brown crystal killer. I did catch one on a brown mohair leech.
I want to try it again before the jet skiers get on there. I will not go out if there are jet skiers on the water. In other words I fish the real small lakes once it warms up enough for skiers and jet skiers.
