Had gone to Cassidy on Saturday to get skunked, so decided to hit up Cresent today since I hadn't stopped by in quiet some time. Wasn't going to do any serious fishing, just messing around and having some fun. Me and the dog caught a bunch of little Pumpkinseed and Green Sunfish, even some tiny large mouth fishing around the weeds from the shore. Even a few good sized pumkinseeds.
Started off with a black mini jig under a float, casting it and working it back in slowly, got some good sized pumpkinseed like this, then switched to flipping some small plastics (mostly green, threw an orange one too) with no weight and caught most of them this way.
Found a worm, and rigged it up with a splitshot to try to get a catfish, but only caught a tiny perch which then got turned into bait for more panfish and bass.
All in all fished for about 3-4 hours and caught well over 50 fish (not many to take for the frying pan, but thats not really what I went for anyway)
If you're looking for a great place to take a kid or two with short attention spans this would be a good place. Not really a very clean area, and the banks pretty muddy, but you can catch a ton of fish all day long. Lots of frogs and other critters to chase and explore too.
