Bert Craddock Wins Pike's Creek Trout Pair

Bert Craddock secured his first season win with three fine trout on the Pike's Creek trip. Toe Moiler followed in second with a mixed bag of trout and perch. Weighing was strong for the season, with mudeyes and frogs for trout and worms for perch. Weather and tides affected other ports, while Deep Creek showed muddy water and worm lure potential. Perch and eel activity varied, with river fishing below the wall producing few finned catches.
