Hiawassee report

Published on 04-05-2022 12:02 AM

I shot docks amongst all of the trollers, spider riggers and planer board fisherman. I caught fish pretty steady shorts mixed in with the slabs. I managed my first TARP crappie and my personal best Tennessee fish. I fished 3 hours after a late start, a trip back to the truck to get the trolling motor remote. First shot in the water was a 10am. Fish I found holding deep in 8 fow. Ended the trip with 21 fish boated. All fish returned promptly after photos.

I did well on Bobby Garland Baby Shad in Blue Ice, Meteor, Love Bug, Black and Chartreuse.

Getting the sun up and overhead is often beneficial when shooting docks. It concentrates the fish to the shadows of the dock
