Snakeheads in Newton near Westville

Snakeheads in Newton

You also can catch these using top water frogs during the summer. When they spawn, you can spot them with their babies. Chucking a lure past the babies then dragging the lure into the pod of fish will produce.

Kayak Bassing near Westville

Kayak Bassing

Newton is a great place to throw frogs and senko via a kayak or small boat. The summer gets weeded out, so electric motors may have some issue. This is when there will be less pressure fishing from boaters and you can pull out some good size bass

North End of Big Timber Creek near Westville

North End of Big Timber Creek

This is a spot right off of Front Street in Glendora. It runs along the old raildroad tracks. There is a lil path that takes you up and over the creek. This spot is where an old rr bridge used to be. Its a little harrowing getting down and wouldnt recommend for more than 2 people at a time, but its a pretty spot. Havent caught anything yet though.
