Where are you going in sippi? Grenada? BTW, Harrison is about the best there is!!!

[ducky2541]

Yeah that's the plan but he said we would be flexible if the other lakes were producing better

Como steak house / days inn n battsville that is between all the laks u b flexible there on your drive to Sardis Enid or Grenada

There are some good places to eat in Grenada. Jake and Rip's has great steaks!!! The Tiki Bar also serves a smoked ribeye that will make your tongue slap your teeth out trying to get to it. There are some really good hotels on the west side or Grenada. Baymont, Holiday Inn Express ect. There are also cabins at Hugh White State Park if they aren't already booked. Hambones cabins on the east side of the lake are nice and clean but a pretty good ways from town. One word of advise, If you stay in town at one of the hotels, DO NOT leave anything in your boat that you want to be there in the morning. There have been incidents of fishing equipment stolen out of boats at night. It's not a big problem but it has happened.

There is also a really good Mexican restaurant on the main drag but I can't think of the name of it. Don't forget to stop at Spencers for ice cream as well.
John will put you on fish. Good luck and have fun

LocABanas, spelling aint rite but its close, behind Burger King in that shopping strip.
If you are dragging your boat I suggest Hambones to stay at, 50 bucks a night if they havent gonna up, take cash. John is as good as it gets, just listen to him on where for yall to fish, he wont be talking just to hear himself. He wants you to have a great trip and you will, great guy and super guide.
Safe travels and good luck!!
