    Default Shellcracker


    Does anybody know where i can begin a search for shellcracker on JPP? I've never caught any but i know they're in there. I fish a couple small bodies of water for them with pretty good luck - just looking to increase spots to hit in the years to come.

    I`ve been told there aren`t any shellcracker in Priest, so I go to Old Hickory and catch them there. Normally the full moon in May is the time to catch them if the water is warm enough.

    Hey Bad there is a place on Ky lake just out of New Johnsonville they recycle cardboard up there.Well right below them on the water there is tons of big shellcracker.They where bigger than any I have ever seen anywheres.Just look for weed beds and near timber there will be usually some close by.

    I've only fished ky lake once and it WASN'T a memorable experience...a little far of a drive for me for a day trip...now if i could find some on the tn river somewhere close - that's a different story.

    I hear a lot about Nickajack for shellcracker's. Chickamauga has a lot of gravel and so does Normandy, but I haven't heard of anyone catching them on Normandy.
    There is a lot more gravel on Priest the closer to the dam you get. Try the road bed south of Hole-in- the Wall island.

    You could buy one of these. Humminbird 900 series. And then find all the beds like these.
    Right side of the scan shows 2 sets of beds.

    How has your experience been with the Humminbird? Some are complaining of problems, but I'm considering purchasing one and was curious if you had any issues.
