Denton Creek

As a river in Texas, United States, Denton Creek fishes best when the flow is steady and the water is clear enough to see a foot or two down. Anglers who do well at Denton Creek pay attention to small things: the angle of the current, the colour of the water, what's hatching, where the wading birds are working. Fly anglers can match local insect activity; spin anglers can run small spinners or soft plastics through the same lies.

Fishing Techniques

• For Channel catfish

  Fish near structure like submerged trees or rocks, as channel catfish often use these areas for ambush points and shelter.

• For Common carp

  Pre-bait the area with a similar bait you plan to fish with to attract carp and increase your chances.

• For Yellow bullhead

  Fish near the bottom, as yellow bullheads are bottom feeders. Use a slip bobber to suspend your bait just off the bottom in deeper water.
