Evansville Fishing-Pigeon Creek? - pagosapig - 09-21-2010

I was curious if any fishers in Evansville, IN have ever fished at Pigeon Creek? If so what kind of fish do you catch? What bait should I use? And are the fish edible to eat (I mean by the chemicals in the creek)?

Usualy when a body of water is contaminated, the state will post something stating to the fact.

Its not so much the toxins we know about, its the ones we dont know about that scare me.. [shocked]

there are lots of creeks and streams in that state that dont hold watter year round, I dont know if this is one of them or not. some times these creeks are no wider than a dranage ditch and I have even seen a few that were only a foot wide.

I havnt got to fish the Evansville area so I cant say what the area holds, but if you dont mind doing a little research, contacting the local chamber of commerce will lead you to the nearest bait shop and bodies of water that are fishable.
