    Default Watts Bar Trip


    My wife and I just got in from 4 days of great fishing on Watts Bar.
    The weather was great and the fishing was great. We used strictly minnows
    and came home with 146 crappies. 3 of them weighed over 1.5 lbs.
    This was our best catch of the 3 times we have been there.
    We want to thank Don York at Edens Resort for all the tips he gave us this year and in the past. Also thanks to CP and Don and Blackie for their past tips also. Got to see CP and Paul along with their friend but missed seeing Don and Blackie. I'm attaching a picture of Monday's catch.

    Great catch Bob & Zenna and a great picture....What kind of camera do you have?

    Maybe Blackie & I will see you next year if not before....

    PS: I'll bet Zenna has a sore arm from reeling in & you have a sore arm from netting.........LOL....Be good :D

    DG, where did you guys stay?
    You're right about her sore arm but she wouldn't let me net them. She would rather bring them to the top and watch them flip off and swim away. LOL
    Her camera is a Sony DSC P93. It does real good but when reducing the size to 50K for posting, the pictures lose their sharpness. Probably caused by me not knowing what I'm doing. She had a Sony 100 last year and dropped it at the Brawl, dinged it, and we lost all the pictures we took. I think she likes this 93 better than the 100 anyway.
    Hope to see you next year.

    KB, We have been staying with Killer across from Eden. We have to look for bargains since we are on a fixed income & you can't beat "free".. Putting up with Killer offsets the high prices of motels...LOL....Really, he goes out of his way for us.....

    Thanks for the info on the camera....
