Deer Creek "Trout City"

We headed out to teach me how to Bass fish on Deer Creek on the 8th of May.  Yep it has been that long since I updated, sorry.  Anyhow we headed out for our adventure, me, Kelly and Clif (local angler) and new fishing contact for sure.  We got on the water at the state park and headed north the wind was cold and biting on the bare white winter legs.  We got to an area they called Bass cove, yep.  It was north of the Island and looked inviting for sure.  We worked our way north and east along the bank and tossed everything they thought would catch a Bass.  We fished for about 4 hours and nothing, seen a lunker cruising the shore they got all excited and started flippin and casting but to no avail.   We then headed SE and went to the Island and same thing started throwing everything at them.  Clif hooked a tube jig on my line and said this is a great thing for all fish, I said yep, and started to fish it.  We started around the south side of the island and the wind kicked up and they said time to go to UL for some fishing there.  We headed out across Island Bay and I was still casting Kelly told me to pull in so we could go.  I said nope we are in the middle of "Trout City", and sure enough this beautiful Brown decided to treat me with a hook up!  They couldn't believe it, thought I was snagged til I got him to jump, yep a brownie jumped for them.  Too Funny!  I got it in they said we are leaving and I tried to coax them to stay but that was it I caught a trout on a Bass fishing trip on a bass boat with bass fisherman they were done with me....LOL.  I told them there weren't any bass in DC and that the one they thought they saw was old yellow head Carp....LOL.  Fun day!  Good company and can't wait to go back to "Trout City" with the Bass boys ;)
