• Where to Fish on Little Deep Fork Creek Site 22 Reservoir

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. The arms fish better than the open middle whenever the water is up. Draw-down through summer strips the margins, so follow the water out. Across Creek County, recorded fish include bluegill, largemouth bass, green sunfish and Rio Grande longear sunfish. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. On this water the first feature you find is usually worth a session.

• Seasonal Patterns

  In an average year July sits at 81°F and January at 36°F. Fish stay active all year, but they move with the heat. The first and last hours carry the summer; the middle is slow. November and March are the quiet, comfortable months to be out. That shapes the year on this water. Nights draw in quickly late in the season, so plan the walk back.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. Access is unmapped, which usually means a farm track and a walk. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. State or provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. The nearest alternative is Little Deep Fork Creek Site 21r Reservoir, 0.6 miles out. Treat this water as unsettled until someone local tells you otherwise.
