Fishing Mill Creek

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Mill Creek

The weather of course is better today so I headed out to fish Mill Creek. I had hoped to catch a bunch of different species but in the end only catching four. Two redfish, six rockfish (schoolies), nine white perch and a cownose ray (actually snagging his wing). I was trying to show the diversity in the creek. I�ve caught largemouth bass, snakehead, Seatrout, cownose ray, striped bass, white perch, bluefish, mackerel, cutlassfish, Atlantic lizard fish, puffers, spot, croaker etc. So I�m feeling that I had a poor showing. Anyway, the upper end of the feeder creeks to Mill Creek were rather muddy and full of leaf debris. Only catching a few white perch up in them. I caught the other fish off rip rap points and under piers. The ray came off a sea wall. It turned to eat the bait but snagged itself. I fought it for fifteen minutes or so. I beached myself, got out of the kayak, but when I got him into one foot of water he wasn�t having it. He then broke me off. In the end it was a great morning on the water!
