What to tie on at Logan's Point / Rock Creek Arm
Picked from recent reports for this stretch.
Clouser Minnow (Bass) (Chartreuse/White)
This baitfish imitation is excellent for targeting aggressive bass and gar that are actively hunting juvenile fish in the lake's clearer sections during spring.
Crappie Jig Fly
Spring is prime time for crappie spawning activity, and this fly is a proven producer for crappie, walleye, and sauger around submerged structure.
Buy at AmazonSan Juan Worm
With thunderstorms in the forecast, aquatic worms are likely to be washed into the system, making the San Juan Worm a highly effective attractor for many species including bass, carp, and catfish.
Buy at AmazonDamsel Nymph (Olive)
Damsel nymphs become highly active in late spring as they migrate to shore, making this a top choice for stripping along weed beds where sunfish, bass, and crappie will be foraging.
Woolly Bugger (Olive)
A versatile and classic streamer, the olive Woolly Bugger effectively imitates leeches and baitfish, which are active food sources for bass, gar, carp, and catfish in warming spring waters.
Scud (Pink/Orange)
Freshwater amphipods are a consistent food source in Tuttle Creek Lake, and a pink or orange Scud can be particularly effective in early spring, appealing to a wide array of species.
Buy at AmazonPerch Pattern
Early spring is a prime time for walleye and sauger to key in on perch fry, making this baitfish imitation a strong choice for these predatory species.
Crappie Jig Fly
Explicitly targets Crappie, Walleye, Sauger, Bass, and Catfish, which are present in Tuttle Creek Lake. It effectively mimics jigs and minnows, aligning with KDWP reports for crappie, and is suitable for summer fishing around structure.
Buy at AmazonCrayfish (Fly)
Crayfish are a primary food source for bass in rocky areas during summer and fall. This pattern is effective when stripped along the bottom to mimic fleeing crayfish, also appealing to Walleye, Catfish, and Carp.
