bbuenzow:
My dad and a buddy fished Brushy on Sunday and Monday. Caught total of 30 fish (gills and crappies). He said it is a very interesting lake with all the trees in it. I am planning to head up that way on Sunday. Any reports from this week would be greatly appreciated. I have never fished there. Any suggestions as to where some nice spots on the lake are to catch fish? Thanks.

 I pulled my house off yesterday.. south end a large part of So uth is opening up..poor bite
I would try north boat ramp around bridge 1
I'm told they're catching a few nice crappies and gils in the trees.

There is a gas station in a little town somewhere near there, don't remember the name, that you can get bait, but if I were you I would just get them when you leave Des Moines.  Be sure to have oyur ice picks along with the way the ice is pretty crazy with various thicknesses.

Thanks for the suggestions. Plan to be there on Sunday. Not sure what it will be like with the predicted snow/rain or whatever we will get on Sunday though. I'll give it a try anyway. Good luck.

Five of us fished at Brushy Creek today. first time I have been there. It is a pretty neat lake and has a ton of trees. We fished from 11:30 am to 5:00 p.m. and caught a total of 22 nice bluegills. Only caught one small crappie that was too small. Pretty slow bite today.
